How did this darn thing get started?

As far back as 2006 I've had a painful knee.  I remember slipping on the snow when I lived in Crystal Lake and that it hurt since then.  Of course I thought I had chipped a bone or stressed a ligament and that it would heal with time. 

Occasionally I would go to the doctor who would tell me to lose a little weight and it will be ok.  So I lost a little weight and it wasn't ok.  The pain didn't get worse but it also didn't get better so I just ignored it.   We moved to Island Lake and I didn't have to worry about slipping on the snow anymore.  I enrolled in a fantastic yoga class and remember that I always had "knee issues" but the instructor was so helpful in helping me redesign the exercises to fit my issues.  I lost a lot of weight at that time.  My pain didn't get worse, but it also didn't get better.
