I’ve have OA. For about 13 years now, had to retire early from work, ( I’m not complaining).

I have pins in my feet, and a cage on my spine. Pain never goes, been suffering quite a lot during lockdown Drs not taking apps. I’ve had 2 falls recently my knees are like balloon, and click away. weight is going up, cause I can’t get out.

medication does take the edge off.

but I’m hanging on in there. Just wanted to say Hi we’re not on our own.

    Hi Aggie123,

    Welcome to the Online Community Forum.

    I'm sorry to hear about you having OA, but by the sounds of it early retirement was a blessing for you. How are you finding that?

    Do you live on your own?

    If you would like to someone in person then the Helpline number is as follows:

    Stay Safe
