Hiya
Welcome to the site.
Unfortunately it is difficult for us to say. Have you had any tests? I presume that you have not informed your doctor of these problems, otherwise he would have done these investigations for you.
My suggestion would be to inform your doctor of what pains you have, how long you have been suffering from them and the daily impact that they have on you.
It is possible that it is arthritis but there are so many different things that can cause different pains, it is safer to get your GP to review this.
If you have had tests, what were they and what were the results, do you know?

Hello and welcome
Nice to hear from you but, from what you say it sound as if you should go and see your GP. Thats the only way you'll find out. Hope all goes well. Suexx0 -

Hi Deano
Wlcome to the forum. Everyone here will do their best to help answer any questions you might have, or just listen to your worries and support you.
Just post your query and we will all do our best.
Sorry to hear about your OA.
You must be feeling very frightened at the moment and worried about the future. When this first hit me at the end of May I cried all week at least
Just pop a question on and we'll try to help.
Take care
