The problem with having arthroscopys for RA is that it makes everything else ache as well!

Crutches are not easy as they make your hands hurt; the other hip gets sore because you're using it more!!!

It's all very boring!!!

Hi Pauline, I can't use crutches either, they are terrible on my wrists and hands. But, My 4 - wheeled walker is the answer. I can raise the handle grips up high enough, then lean my forearms on the hand grips, to take the weight off the knee, and away I go. Hope you get to walking without any thing soon, Loretxx
