    That must be very uncomfortable as well as inconvenient. I know you were recently diagnosed with RA, I wonder if it could be useful to go and see your GP to ask for some help, he might know why this is happening and send you for some physiotherapy. DD

    I agree. It sounds like a spot of physio is called for.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
