Default RE: knees hurt on stand?

Thanks for the replies now I don't feel so lonely. After hearing peoples stories I am going to try and give them some heat to see if this helps. I hunt out of 1 ladder stand, 1 climber, and 7 portables- 2 with footrests (wife thinks I have too many stands. Some women don't get it, but shes the greatest she don't give me no flack about my time in the woods) they all feel about the same.

JCNinOKC, I think this is related to the weather, I get about 15-30 minutes of sitting and then the pain. Do you still think it may be a circulation problem? I'm willing to try anything (even nylons) if ya think it'll help. I'm just curious, I could see if after an hour or two some discomfort, but this 15-30 min. is just frustrating. I like to shoot sitting down so usually in the late season I just stand and sit if I can spy a deer early enough.

I guess I should have mentioned my mom has had a knee replaced and they want her to have the other one done, so it looks like I might be in the same boat later on.
Thanks, Chris
