We are looking for volunteers in Scotland aged 18 years or older with osteoarthritis-related knee and/or hip pain who are able to walk, have access to the internet, and are interested in participating in a research study.

The study will last for 8 weeks and will involve answering questionnaires about how you feel and how active you’ve been.

If you would like to find out more about participating,

please contact Tiffany at tiffany.hamilton-barclay@strath.ac.uk

Thank you!

Hi Pat!

I hope the change in his meds helps. He's definitely doing well in terms of exercise, etc. so getting the drugs right should hopefully sort some of the trouble he's having.

Thank you for the vote of confidence! This is a new study that's just starting, so hopefully we'll get some interest.

I have osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia. I may be interested in helping with this study but I would like to know more about it before I commit to it.

An x-ray I had shows osteoarthritis in my shoulders,particularly the left one.I'm not crippled with it but have pain when doing very limited amounts of physical movements.However, it's all about priorities and I'm much more concerned with my left foot often feeling like lead when on my feet. Having had a transient ischemic attack (including the above feeling) 9 months ago, for which I take Clopidogrel to thin the blood, I'm much more worried as to the possibility of a further TIA (mild stroke or worse). As I say ,life's all about priorities.Best of luck

Hi Sargrith,

Thank you for your comment. I do hope that you don't have any more TIAs and that you find a good way to manage the pain in your shoulders.

Good luck to you!
