Hi, Im 18 and have not actually been diagnosed with arthritis yet, but I am convinced that I have some sort of Arthur. I have suffered with back pains and problems for at least a year, and over the last 6months have also had problems with my hips. I have had physio and have been told that my hips and all the joints in my back are very stiff, especially considering my age. Despite this my physio totally dismissed the idea of Arthritis as i am "too young" my GO also started off dismissing the idea but has since seemed to begin to think that there is a strong possiblity.

I have seen on here that I am definately not "too young" to have arthritis and am also just looking for support and advise.
