Hi, my name is Pauline and I am a fellow sufferer of and living with Osteoarthritis. I’ve never joined a club/help group before and I do not know anyone who is also afflicted with this condition. I live alone and I struggle everyday. This condition has dramatically changed my life. Looking forward to chatting with others who also have been diagnosed with this condition. I love the TV advertisements, it’s the first time I have ever seen anything in television regarding this condition, they are brilliant.

Hi Pauline and welcome to the Online Community. You have joined a group that well understands what it is like to live with osteoarthritis. I'm sorry to hear that you are struggling at the moment. You may like to see if there is anything on our website that can help, like this page on osteoarthritis:

https://www.versusarthritis.org/about-arthritis/conditions/osteoarthritis/

It includes information on managing pain and also help on living with osteoarthritis.

Do join in across the Community, ask questions, give advice or just call in for a chat and let us know how you are getting on.

All best wishes

Brynmor
