Hi just came across this site researching MBST ...there seem to be so many wonderful people on this forum that I registered for it
I have had the first signs of OA coming on for the last 7 years ..my knees and my finger joints and the latest ... my feet or to be more precise the soles .I am going to be 51 this year...but not willing to give in without a fight inspite of a mom, aunts and a grandma pretty badly afflicted by it . :smile:

    Hi Vini

    Welcome to the forum. :grin: Do join us on the Living With Arthritis forum, where many of us hang out or on the Chitchat zone, if that rocks your boat :lol:

    Look forward to seeing your name more around the forum.

    Look after yourself,

    There are indeed some smashing people on here and we know what coping with this dross is like. I am DD, I have two sorts of arthritis, an immune-system based one and OA. I began mine at 37 and fully accept that I am written off (in some respects) at the grand young age of 52. :smile: It's nice to meet you and I hope you stick around for while: we are a wise bunch as we know our stuff.

    Hi Vini

    I am 38 and have OA in every joint. I have gained so much strength and support from this forum recently and dont know how I managed without it. The people on here have lifted my spirits when I have been at my lowest. I hope to see you around and look forward to getting to know you better. Stay strong xx
    Big Hugs

    Coming in late due to a shopping expedition with the daughter!!!!

    Welcome to the forum I hope you get the support and help that I know I do from here. I am 43 and have Ankylosing Spondilitis and possible RA, been diagnosed for four years but had since my teens. Life goes on and we live with it the best we can by exchaning, sharing and screaming at each other on here. xx
