    Hello @Elaine18

    Welcome to the online community and thank you for joining us. I hope that you will find this a friendly place where you can continue share your story with us all.

    So you have recently been diagnosed with osteoarthritis and would like to know how other people deal with their condition.

    Out of curiosity, which joints have been diagnosed with the condition. Have you been prescribed any medication?

    I'm sure you will get lots of people's take on how it effects them and their hints and tips too.

    I've attached some information on the condition below and ways in which you can manage your pain. I hope they will be of help to you. The main Versus Arthritis has lots and lots of great information on it from exercising to different information on drugs that are prescribed. It may be worth having a look at, if you haven't already.
