Hello

NatashaSH

I suffer with psoarsis arthritis and it can be debilitating and lonely I have it in my knee joints and legs bones always sore down fronts most days if do anything then sore or really sore.

I had fluid removed with steroid injections into both of my knees.

i get fluid build up around knees still but not as bad as that

I also have bones deformed my left foot the two of them from the arthritis

I was hoping to get back to retail work before this a lorry driver I went as far as my theory and hazard perception completed wasn’t meant to be in the end
