Okay, a story:

In the summer of 2010 I bought a spaniel puppy. I work in school so had the full 6 weeks to house train her. I used to take her on the bus when I returned to work, and drop her off at my daughters who also had a puppy. This worked well for a while, but because of her young bones I could not take her on the long walks on the beach I had planned. One day after it had snowed so much the school was closed, I took her for a walk. She loved it. I went carefully but loved it too. We crossed the road when I suddenly found myself sitting by the roadside! I have no memory of falling or landing! I got up and had absolutely no pain or bruses. Time passed. In February 2011 my knees started to give me pain on the stairs that had previously been no problem. So I got keys for the lifts. The next week was half term. Exactly a week after my knees started to cause me pain my hips joined in. They felt odd. Kind of floaty as if there were a cushion like a blister bubble in them. I saw the doc but he had no ideas. The next day the bubbles had burst and I was in agony! Doc thought Arthritis and got me to walk more. I could only hobble a couple of houses before I had to turn back. Bursitus was the next idea, which meant rest not exercise. I tried this, no luck. Both my doc and Rheumatologist tried giving me an injection of steroids into my right hip, neither worked. Off work for a few months, then contacted Access to Work, they assessed me, my work place and gave recommendations, paid for one journey a day to or from work and partially paid for an electric chair to get around at work. Burning pains continue and are mostly located in my hip. I have other pains in other places, and deal with them or ignore them. My hands, elbows, shoulders, knees, back etc but they are another story.
