Just joined. I have chronic Osteoarthritis in hands, feet, knees, hips, neck shoulder and spine. Needless to say constant pain, far worse when damp cold weather about. I have days where I could just sit down and cry because of the pain but I don’t because I am a very determined person and push myself to get on with life. Its a struggle though at times. Mike

It's a great attitude you have and amazing that you are able to push through, just know that you are not alone and you can lean on others for support, especially here.
