Yes, warm, tingling and sometimes stinging. Weird!

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

I remember when I was young, my grandmother said "I've got toothache in my knees". We laughed at the time, but now I know exactly what she meant!!

Hello

Try to explain in a little song, so you will remember and not forget the effected joints. SET TO THEM BONES THEM BONES.

Seriously it is very difficult to explain pain to a person who has no understanding of a condition that is not really seen by them. You can use the Pain Council number range 1-10 where ten is where you are clambering up the walls and back down again

All the best

I tell people I feel like I have the flu. Right now I'm flared up. Hands and wrist are swollen, muscles twitching and pulling. It's unreal all the things you go through.
