I am new here and this seemed like the best part of the forum to post in.

I have wide-spread osteo and inflammatory arthritis and have just come out of hospital.

Hope you are all having a good day :-)

    Hi there and welcome from me too. Mine's RA plus, as it were. (The pluses come after many years of it.)

    Just wander around and join in wherever you like. Hope you're feeling better after your hospital visit.

    Hi pinkbritishstars

    I am a bit late calling in here today. Welcome to AC. I have Osteo Arthritis too. I am sorry that you have been in hospital but it is good that you are home now. I am just over 2 weeks post op after a spine op at the top end. Been out today celebrating my MIL's 93rd birthday, lovely lunch, good company and birthday cake. :grin:

    Hope to see you posting more,

    Elna x

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.

    Hey PBS

    Good to meet you - I hope you don't mind, but l have used initials instead of your username (very pretty name) as it's a longun and a) l will spell it wrong and b) me fingers are rough today :wink:

    Sorry you are just out of hospital :sad:

    I do hope you will enjoy the forums as much as l have.

    Love

    Hello again. I hope you're doing OK today. Were you in for an op then or just physio? I've done both. Several times. Always with good results.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
