Hello all. I have RA affecting multiple joints. I am planning on doing a kitchen remodel and would love to get any hints or tips you may have on general layout and design features that could make life easier. Many thanks
Hello, in my first post I said I was 87 years old but meant to say I was 78,what I am wondering is how many people on here have had a hip operation at age 80 + and if you found it easy to cope with, or decided not to get the operation at that age. I think I will be around that age before my operation comes up on the…
A few weeks ago, I had gout, but currently, I do not have it, and my uric acid levels are normal. Now, I experience a sharp, throbbing, burning pain that periodically manifests around the left metatarsal area.

I’m seeings lots of ads for this during the Olympics. I can’t use any NSAIDS not even things like Voltarol. I can use Deep Heat carefully, and do use Biofreeze. I wonder does Tiger Balm work also? I used to have some years ago but that was for insect bites.

Just wouldn’t want…
I'm waiting for my second hip replacement and have trouble sitting comfortably. It's worse than I remember from the previous hip. I've tried a coccyx cushion which didn't help. I have a memory foam wedge from Putnams which helps a bit but is too firm and makes my sitting bones (ischial tuberosities) uncomfortable, as does…
