I'm glad I discovered this Forum; hope it can provide opportunities for valuable exchange of ideas and information!
I currently suffer from "biltateral glenohumeral osteoarthritis"; I may
be headed for a "Ream & Run" hemiarthroplasty" sometime this year
for my left shoulder (It's the worst at this time) at the University of
Washing ton's Medical School....Hate to have to travel a bit far (I
live in Riverside, CA) but the surgeon there invented this surgery and
has done more of these than anyone else at this time....Although the
promise of Stem Cell Therapy as well as Gene Therapy for Osteoarthritis
seems to be gathering rather huge momentum....
Hope to hear from others, and to correspond!
Yorkere - you were just about one of the last people to post before the Forums crashed, but welcome aboard. I was diagnosed at UW with my Hashimoto's, canary to the rest of the autoimmune system ~~twitters~~
