I have OA and Spondlyo arthropathy ( a type of inflammatory arthritis) and on bucket fills of drugs I'm sure I rattle when I walk

Went back on Monday to see doc. He now says that there nothing that can be done about my O/A because all avenues have been covered. He now thinks that because my employer after 20 yrs paid me off, tried to get hold of my pension that I cant get because that means my employer that was has to pay, and as I had said to my doctor if I was sitting in front of him aged 63 onwards I woudnt have a fight on my hands,in pain all of the time not sleeping etc, he now thinks that depression is setting in. But still think that they do not listen.
