Hi all. I'm thinking of trying insoles to see if they would help with my knee osteoarthritis. Just wondering if anyone has tried them and any recommendations
Hi. For a few years now I've had biologic injections that I've had to keep refrigerated (2-8 degrees C) I recently got a temperature sensor that connects to my phone and I've found out the area in my fridge where my medication is stored occasionally goes a degree or so over/under the 2-8 degrees for a brief time (usually 5…
I have recently been diagnosed with osteoarthritis which came as a bit of a shock. I joined this group to help me get to grips with it and more importantly understand it. I am an 84 yo woman, looking after my 89 yo partially blind husband. Ten years ago I had bilateral hip replacements which were very successful after…
