Carol Perkins: Them Bones Previous Column: Is That You? By Carol Perkins "You have to be kidding," I said to my knee doctor. "I don't think so!" During my three-month follow-up appointment, I inquired about the difference in the length of one leg compared to the other, so he ordered a couple of scans. Sure enough, there is an inch difference.

The hip on the good side was hiked up as if I had been posing on a red carpet with my hand on my hip. "See all the arthritis?" He pointed to the fuzzy-looking matter surrounding the hip. "That's part of the problem, too." I looked closely, having never seen arthritis in action.
