    Hi Iris
    Goodness you are going through it! I hope that your knees settle and that the inflixi does the job this time.
    I will be thinking of you tomorrow xx

    Hi Iris,

    will be thinking of you tomorrow, hope it quickly makes a big difference... and that you get a parking space. (if you don't let a porter push you to the car -all part of the service!)

    I have had OA since mid twenties. It affects my hips and knees. I had a THR on the left aged 30 and now have a resurface-replacement on the right - done May 2010.

    Hi Iris,
    Wow that was an appointment full of surprises. It is wonderful that they are all taking such an interest in your welfare and are prepared to go the extra mile. No one deserves it more than you and although there is a tough road ahead for you we will be there to keep you company.
    I do hope that the knees will be eased this time, as you say if they could be left for a good while longer all the better.
    In a way it is good that you are having the infusion tomorrow. Less time to think about it and as you say they will be monitoring you all the way.

    I will be with you all morning and I will be sending you as many calming vibes as you want and a massive bucket of hugs.

    Hi Iris
    Glad that you had the knee done and had a lovely consultant who was really nice. I hope the xrays come back ok and that no surgery is needed, that the injection you have had helps.
    Good luck with th infusion tomorrow, I can understand that you are quite worried. I will be up and dressed ready for pocket duty tomorrow.
    Try not to worry (ha says I who is worlds biggest worry woman)
    Take care
