i am in the initial stages of being diagnosed with arthritis. they have said that it is not rheumatoid and its not osteo because i have had this for more than three years, and it effects each one of my joints. i have been sent for 5 blood tests and im waiting for my next appointment with a new rheumatologist.. im quite frightened because somedays i am completely immobile, i wish you well! xx

i am 15 and have arthritis as a symptom of whatever shape up it is that my doctors are working to diagnoise. i wear ace bandages on my wrists and legs, and have to ride the teach elevator and am loosing the skill to write sadly as i take pleasure in it so much. i share the same experience with the showers, i have to take baths and sometimes find for myself crawling out. it is excellent to find comfort that someone else is going through this too.
is the winter also harsh for you?
