Any attempt to get a diagnosis anywhere on the internet is no substitute for
seeing your doctor.  Particularly since you have diabetes.  That makes any
sort of self diagnosis and treatment a poor risk.

If you are concerned and worried, then make a doctors appointment.

There're a lot of things in the knee that could be hurting.

Except when walking on slopes or stairs, right?

Could be a lot of things. An impinged nerve comes to mind.

Sounds kinky. I guess as long as the machine was consenting, who am I to
judge?

See a doctor.

> I am worried.

Then see a doctor.

> What is wrong with my knees.

Ask a doctor!

> What should I do?

Make an appointment to see a doctor.

Then you should really see a doctor, all sorts of unpleasant things can
go wrong with diabetes.

> I am concerned and worried.

You should see a doctor.

Don't reply to this message right away. Instead, take a few minutes and
phone your doctor's office and make an appointment.

Cheers,

I'm going to die rather sooner than I'd like. I tried to protect my
neighbours from crime, and became the victim of it. Complications in
hospital following this resulted in a serious illness. I now need a bone
marrow transplant. Many people around the world are waiting for a marrow
transplant, too. Please volunteer to be a marrow donor:

Get your medical doctor to refer you to a rheumatologist.  He can tell you
if it has anything to do with any of the arthritis diseases.
