    Hi Ann,
    You moan away my love, when you're in pain it's utterly draining. That's the thing with Arthur, its always there, just fools you into a false sense of security when you have a gap between flares.
    Take it easy, take the painkillers, rest as much as you can, and don't worry about moaning here, we all understand how bad the pain can get and how much it can get you down.
    Thinking of you and sending some hugs your way xxx

    moaning is good, a problem shared, as they say. We are often in the same boat and pain is indeed wearing and depressing, to say the least. Sending hugs and well wishes for a better day tomorrow. XX Bubbles

    Of course you can moan to us, we know what it is like and we understand. Arthritis does this, it makes you think that things are easing, getter better, that the meds help then it has another nip at you. I hope you are feeling a little better today - and I am glad to hear that the knitting is under way - what are you making? DD

    Hi Ann,

    It gets to you flower and you are allowed to moan and say it is. Necks hurt.... wrists are pains and well I am sorry your having a rough time just now.
    Can't do much except say if it keeps on you maybe should go to the gp and have a chat about the tablets your on not working and can they help?

    Leaving you a ((( ))) and a hope the day improves as it goes along. Cris x

    hi Ann I myself has been down and fed up with constant pain the past few weeks so I know how you feel the constant draining pain and tiredness is so debilatating, my right hand is really weak and painful and being right handed is a real depressing thing to have, along with general pain everywhere, but people just ignore it ,
    I often wish we could wear something that flashes a sign that we are in pain and it glows at the place its hurting maybe then people would realise how much pain we all endure I know mine would be glowing so much it could be seen from space lol, we all know what its like so it helps others if we let each other know how we are feeling Michelle
