Hiya,

I'm new to the forum, joined up after reading about it.

I have arthritis in my Knees, elbows and right shoulder. I have HMS in my Knees & Elbows, I also have it in my wrists but they have been spared from having arthritis.

I have it in my right shoulder due to fracturing it in 1994 when I was 9 years old.

I would like to learn more about arthritis as I haven't suffered this bad before only in recent months has it goten worse.

I suppose I should formally introduce myself my name is Pamela-Anne, but I get called Pamie. I am 25 years old and currently living in Fife. I am studying to get into Journalism, I am hopefully going to be studying at Aberdeen College in August 2011. Then go onto University in Aberdeen. I am keen on sports, but because of the pain I suffer I'm limited. I love football, tennis, rowing and netball. I hope that when my pain is manageable I can return to rowing.

well I reckon I have bored you enough, if you would like to learn more about me, don't hesitate to ask me.


Pamie
I ♥ Runrig.

I live, sleep, eat and breathe Runrig!!!!!.

    Hey, and thanks, and Merry Christmas to you too.

    Not too bad today, sort of doped up on pain killers though :\.

    Hello Pamie and welcome from me too! Glad you have found us!

    Best place to post general arthritis things is on the Living with Arthritis (LWA) forum and, for light relief, the Chit-Chat forum is good.

    Glad you are not too bad today but sorry you are doped up on painkillers.

    What is HMS?

    Look forward to seeing you posting - and your post was definitely not boring!

    Merry Christmas.

    Love Tilly x x:rudolf

    HMS is Hypermobility Syndrome. It's not very well known unfortunately :(.
