    What a time of it you're having again too, :(:(:(

    I always find that a cortisone injection in a joint helps others too, so hopefully after you've had your finger done on Tues. you will feel the relief in your knee. The anti iflammatories should help also, but they can take a little while to kick in, so take it easy 3Dogs.

    You may find elevating it helps, but most importantly, rest it when it's painful. I totally sympathsise with the injection you have to have. I find fingers one of the most painful, but the result is always worth it.

    Take care of yourself 3Dogs. :A:A xx

    Yes maybe that is the tactic I should adopt. Just ignore them.

    Another of my mammoth posts :o:o

    I saw the doc this morning and he was good, asking if I would consider counselling, as he felt my anti-depressants were rather strong and he wouldn't like to change them. I agreed so he said he would check it out for me, as he wasn't sure if he had to refer me or if it was self referral. Secretary from surgery rang me later to give me the details as it is self-referral so I will contact them on Monday

    I also told him that my arthritis in my fingers and knees had been pretty bad lately, and he checked my fingers. As ever, when I go to the doctors, the swelling and pain wasn't as bad :mad: :mad: but he suggested another cortisone injection in the base of my middle finger, palm side, so I am going back next Tuesday for that :eek:
    #
    As my knees where 'ok' I didn't push him about them, but when I came out of the surgery, I walked across the town centre to get money out of my bank's atm, thinking that I might have a cup of coffee and then have a look around a few shops (poundland, 99p store :rotfl: :rotfl:) but I took a few steps away from the bank and then screamed, nearly falling over, as my left knee had gone completely. I tried to put a little weight on that leg, but it felt like 'bone-on-bone' and was agony. I was standing in the middle of the pavement, wondering how I was going to get to the shop fronts, never mind back across town to my car :eek: Several people looked on, concerned, as I was shouting out when I tried to step forward. I managed to get next to the shop fronts and, somehow, managed to hobble back across town. One lady offered to walk with me as she thought I might stumble and fall, but I told her that I would just take my time and didn't want to keep her. I could only take 3 or 4 steps at a time, dragging my right foot up to my left, never putting my left foot forward as this meant putting weight onto it, and I couldn't straighten it as it was agony when I tried. It seemed to take forever for me to get back to the car, but I realised that I could not drive, so carried on to the surgery, which is a big Georgian building, with 3 high stone steps up to the entrance :eek: I only got up those steps by taking my weight on the handrails at each side and 'jumping' on my right leg. When I got inside, I realised that I could not get to reception, as that was down about 8 steps, but my doctor's room was just inside the door, so I sat outside and when he came out to get something I asked if I could see him after he dealt with current patient. When I got in to see him, the pain was easing slightly and I could almost straighten my knee. After examining me, doc suggested anti-inflammatories, which I don't usually have as they upset my asthma, but I felt it worth trying. He said that the ligaments around my knee were 'all messed up' but that the anti-inflamms should do the trick within a few days, but to rest my leg for now. He also gave me something for my stomach as the anti-inflamms would probably upset my stomach. I felt so stupid by this time, as I could almost stand and walk properly, but could feel that one wrong move and it would go again. It was ok driving hom though and I am hoping the meds do the trick

    Pretty eventful day :eek: :eek:
    Oh 3Dogs I feel for you, know I do not know all the history but have gathered some, joint pain is a right booger as it has an agenda of it's own, coming ang going when it likes. I hope the meds do work and if they don't keep asking for an alternative until one does, and a help group will help too (although the bunch on here are always here for you too) you always come across as a doer so I hope you can feel better soon.:A

    It's going oos everywhere fast because there's been some great offers on it, but I still haven't fully convinced him yet. He thinks 42inches is too small! :eek: :rotfl:

    40 or 42 ins is probably big enough for my room actually. I was just drawn in by the price. Good deal on that one though ;)
