Hello

Janjancan

Hi, I am janjan and I just joined I wanted to say hello. I’ve degenerative disc disease and arthritis in both of my feet. I have a smorgasbord of symptoms from tingling, numbness, shooting pains and a constant dull pain in both of my feet, I’ve been approved for an NHS wheelchair and hopefully I will have it in the next month or so, it’ll really help me get around and do stuff.

Hi @Janjancan,

Welcome to our online community and thank you for sharing with us. It's great to hear that you'll be getting that wheelchair soon. Hopefully this will really help with getting around. Also, if your GP hasn't already, you may also find a pain clinic helpful to manage your condition and symptoms. You can read more in the link below
