Oh yes! I used to describe it as wearing tight lycra or a wet suit! Now I've forgotten what that feels like!

Is that because your RA is controlled or have you had a knee op? X

Absolutely! Like I was wearing those ankle weights you can use to tone and strengthen muscles just a bit too tight. Almost as if they were filling up. Very odd

Had it yesterday, felt like I had a rubberband round my right knee and a very tight rubber sock on my foot. Woke up this morning and it's gone.

Is it because your RA is under control? Or have you had a knee op? X
