Hello I am a new member. I wld like to know if anyone experiences problems such as mine,after a hip revision...... If I sit upright for any longer tban 2 hours I experience a great deal of pain from the hip the following day. It takes between 3 - 6 days to ease off.
Hello everyone, I’ve recently been diagnosed OA in both hips, the left being the worst, I’d been in pain for quite some time relieving it with ibuprofen until that wasn’t touching the pain, my daughter nagged me into seeing my GP who in turn sent me for an X-ray as she suspected arthritis.

Hi everyone, I’m 42 and was diagnosed with PSA at 21, remained reasonably well apart from the occasional flare up, until now. Last year I was diagnosed with cancer in the mouth!
