Osteoarthritis in both hips -age 41
Hi all, I’m new here and I think I need a bit of help. I have been diagnosed with severe osteoarthritis in both my hips and from the MRI scan it seems that I am bone on bone. I am in so much pain all the time and cry every time I get up to stand. I am only 41 and my GP is certain that I will need both

RA with low CRP and normal blood tests?
I've had inflammation and swelling in all of my finger joints and in both wrists for 11 weeks, but all the blood tests are normal. The inflammation marker CRP is very low, only 0.60. Anti-CCP, RA factor, ESR are normal too. My GP says I'm too young to have osteoarthritis. It will take a couple of months

In the spring of 2016, I started to feel unwell and to display various of the symptoms of hyperthyroidism. The first symptom I experienced was physical pain. In May 2017, I was diagnosed with Graves hyperthyroidism and started taking medication. By the autumn of 2017, my thyroid levels were back within

Finger swelling despite relief from last Remicade/Infliximab infusion?
Hello again! I recently had one of my worst and longest flares- about 1 1/2 months long! I went this past Tuesday and had my Remicade infusion and I’m feeling SO much better! However, my fingers are still swollen and I’m wondering why, especially with the drastic change in the way I feel from the Remicade

EXERCISE
Instead of exercising to "burn" calories, would it not be better to consume the correct amount of calories? I think too much emphasis is put on exercise. I used to be a marathon runner, a tri-athlete and a lifeguard. Now I am riddled with arthritis.

No medication
After a serious breakdown whilst on methotrexate i decided no drugs was best for me. Currently just take anti inflammatory pain killers celecoxib and feel better mentally and physically. Awful experience

RE: VERSUS (Off message) New"Arthritis"" charity
Received this letter today from Versus the new "Arthritis " charity....hope you can see it clearly. No doubt it is a huge mail shot to people who have already been contributing to one of the charities that amalgamated to form Versus. Unfortunately, I have just cancelled my monthly DD, as nowhere does
