:shock: Oooh, my feet are killing me!! :cry: Sorry, just having a little grumble-my foot which is always sore has become very painful in the last few days - sore to touch but not obviously hot or swollen. I don't know why-will just have to report it at orthopaedic appointment in November and hope he'll finally decide to fuse it!!!
Thanks for letting me moan!

Cheerfully, have got lovely new bathroom taps that are trendier than the last attempt at lever ones and are really easy to use!! :lol::lol:

    Ohhh Sore feet are awful. Have you tried using a cream either E45 or Aqueous. E45 was suggested to me by the nurse who took the stiches out of my hand and it was inflamed and sore....I put it on about 4 times a day and its improved my skin so much, its no longer sore. I still use it and on my feet too! I know arthritis is different but it really does seem to be soothing, especially if you get someone else to do it for you! :)Love Sue

    Hi Sue, I do quite often sit rubbing in E45 or a rich moisturiser-like you say, it is soothing! I do prefer to do it myself I must admit, as my toes have to be handled in a certain way! :shock: At the moment, though, its too tender to touch much :( I don't know what's up with it: grrr! How are things with you??? X

    Looks like one for the medics. Ohh sounds like the sort of thing to get you down quickly. Feet get so much use, even when you try and rest them. :(

    I'm Ok,thanks for asking, things are looking up with my neice and I go to the hand clinic Tuesday. My hand has started to look and feel a lot better so hopfully its OK.

    Take care, love sue

    Oh I am fed up foot-wise! They'd said they would fuse it in Jan, then by the time I'd thought about it and made a decision in June the consultant had changed his mind: grr! Will try again in Nov!! Glad to hear things are going okay for you, look after yourself, Josie x

    Hi Josie,

    Sorry your feet are bad at the mo. Just checking they are the normal colour and no numb bits? Its probably something to do with the nerves but I always worry about others feet cus of my own. Luv Cris x

    Hi Sue,

    Hope things all go smoothly for you as well. Luv Cris x
