You could get some replies on here, but this is a site mainly for people with osteoporosis, How about trying the Arthritis Action group here on Healthunlocked as I get the impression you are talking about Arthritis. I do sympathise , when your young they tell u one thing, 10 or so years later they tell you another and so on. One very good thing ( and many other things ) on here is, you are not alone in putting up with Arthritis, osteo or otherwise.
