My name is VWGolf and I'm an alc.......

Ooops! Wrong forum :lol:

Hello - I'm an OA sufferer and it's starting to interfere with my life and interests, so thought I'd have a look in here to see what how other poeple cope with it.

    Morning VW, and welcome to the forums. I have PA (totally different to your sort) but I understand the life-being-affected bit. It's a total ****, yes? Anything meds/treatment related shoudl go on the LWA forum (living with arthritis), more people hang about there and between us all we have a wealth of experience and knowledge. I hope today isn't going to badly for you. DD

    Welcome to the forum VW , the people on here are really friendly and supportive.
    So if you need to ask any questions just post in LWA...or just have a rant.
    Hope to see you posting very soon

    Hello VWGolf. The first line of your post did make me chuckle :D:D:D

    I am sorry about your OA but welcome to the forum. There are lots of forum members with OA (I'm an RA'er myself) so you will be in good company.

    Tilly x

    Thanks for the welcome, everyone :D

    Today I am suffering with OA in my right knee (as usual) and an interesting black and blue knee where I fell over on black ice yesterday. I felt very foolish, in a heap in the middle of the road, unable to get up as there was nothing to grab hold of! Eventually my dog noticed and I used him to pull myself up, then hobbled home again. Next time I shall go down the hill more carefully - perhaps it might be an idea to get down on all fours and crawl along slowly, if not elegantly! :P
