I am currently waiting for tests and a consultation appointment.

Last year I had a right knee replacement. Since then I have had increasing pain in other joints. A couple of weeks ago I had really bad pains in both feet and toes. I am now getting pains in both elbows and fingers. From time to time I am getting pain at the base of my skull up behind my ear and into eye. I am not if any of this related to arthritis? Thank you in anticipation.

    Hello @Geevesie and welcome to the community. We are a friendly and supportive group and I hope that that will be your experience as well.

    I understand that you are currently awaiting tests and a consultation but are wondering if the pain in your other joints is arthritis related. This is something only the medical profession can diagnose so I hope that you do not have to wait much longer. In the meantime have a look at our website and see if anything on that can help. It has a useful search function that lets you search by, for example, joints or medications. To help I've put a couple of links in below which may be of interest.

    Please do keep posting and let us know how you are getting on and I am sure that others will connect with you to share their thoughts and experiences as well.

    With very best wishes
