Hello; for the past few weeks I have been experiencing a pain in my
knee, it is just to the outside of the patella.  It is a
very sharp pain, like hitting a raw nerve, or like an electrical shock.
  It happens totally at random. It can happen when I am walking,
sitting, sleeping, etc.  When the pain is not occurring, my knee feels
completely normal.  When it happens, it usually happens every few
seconds or minutes, then stops for several hours.  I am not aware of
any injury or unusual stress to that area.  Any ideas?
