I have to go to the Doc today ( AGAIN) I am having really bad problems with my knee.The tendon that runs from my foot to my knee is like a taut wire, my ankle and knee are swollen and the pain is making me ill.I didnt sleep last night as I was in tears, hubby has been up all night with me too and has gone to work looking exhausted ( hate it when it affects him like this too).
Dear Lisa, I am so sorry, tht must hurt so badly. I know that burning pain. I'm glad you are getting help today. LyndaAw sweetie, I am so sorry. I hope the drs can do something to ease the pain up today. Your hubby sounds like a trooper. Love and hugs
Please let us know what the doc says. So sorry you are going thru this!Doctor said "its rheumatoid arthritis".My normal doc was called out for emergency and i saw someone i never had before( think he was a locum).Tried ringing my rheumys office and he had left for the day. I am back to the wheelchair as legs are like lumps of wood.They feel so heavy and sore. Oh well I will try again tomorrow.Hope you feel better soon Pin. I'm sorry you're feeling so bad.
Pinnie...what is a locum??? Hope you start feeling better soon.

I hope the Dr can help ya out with the pain so you and your hubby can get that much needed sleep.
Huggs!
LisaLisa, I am so sorry you are having such severe pain! Didn't the Dr. even have any suggestions for some relief from the worst of the pain?
I don't know what a "locum" is, but if it means "insensitive to suffering", then I guess he is one
I hope you feel much better soon.
Gentle hugs,
Nini
A locum is a temporary doctor( stand in)
Anna- I am not far from A&E but it closes at 9pm
Nini- the doc I saw had no ideas for anything.He really wasnt much use
