Hi, just wanted to introduce myself and say hello.

I live in Lincolnshire, originally from Yorkshire. Struggling with all over joint pain amongst other things , which has deteriorated noticeably over the last couple of years. Finally been referred to a rheumatologist but waiting times are long!

Would love to hear from anyone!

    Welcome to the forum @Wez

    I see that you are awaiting a consult with a rheumatologist, following two years of joint pain. Bad though things may seem, I am sure that you will find things better once you have a confirmed diagnosis - good information is key to solving your problems.

    Without a diagnosis, it is difficult to point you at relevant information, but this may help:

    I wish you luck with your consult. Come back and tell us how you got on.

    Hi Wez,

    I know the waiting lists seem to be getting longer, you could ask them if you could be put on the cancellation list if your able to go at short notice

    good luck

    love Jona 😊💪
