If : If you are in a managed care or "rationing plan", good luck getting a referral. You don't give much specifics but this is clearly affecting you to a significant degree. Based on the severity of pain described is it likely that you will require an MRI of the knee and potentially an arthroscopy.

Might need MRI.: You may need an MRI to determine if you have a meniscal tear. You may also have medial plica syndrome.
