Hello

[Guest guest]

Good afternoon,

I am the new kid on the block here today.

I don't feel new as I am 63 and a grandma

of 2. I live downstairs in my daughter

and family's house, I have my own apartment,

so I get to see the grandkids everyday. This has

been a blessing to me.

I have had arthritis (never was told what kind), since

I was early 30's and was on Motrin till 1999 when I

broke out into hives and was changed to Naperson.

I only stayed on these for about a month as my stomach

was just so irritated, and long before thought I was in

trouble stomach wise.

To my docs disgust, I refused anything in meds. Once the

initial shock was over I thought things were going well,

and they were up till this last winter.

My knee is very sore and swollen at times now,and I

sometimes can't get out of bed, my whole body and ribs

are so tight that I can't move. But then it can leave as quickly

as it began, and I have no pain at all!

My ankle has started to be painful

along with swelling when I walk ( I do a lot of walking).

I joined this list for new information on meds and other things

like vitamins that I can be on. I'm looking to getting to know you

and reading what you are going through if you are like me, the

Lord lays me on my back in order to look upand depend on Him.

For now, Wally
