Hello

VWGolf

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

Ooops! Wrong forum

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

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.

Thanks for the welcome, everyone

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
