Guest guest Posted May 2, 2002 Report Share Posted May 2, 2002 The Osteoarthritis <sp> in my right hip is the worse...my Rheumy told me it's bone on bone now. Really bothers me at night and I cannot sleep on my right side. I need a pillow between my legs however when I sleep on my left side. Not sure if I'll have to find a different way to sleep if the left hip goes. You know I ask my Rheumy if RP had anything to do with the Cartridge in the hip and he said no...I think he's wrong on this one. If I'm not mistaken isn't there Cartridgein all your joints???

A real pain. Almost drove me nuts last night when I had to stay on my back for 6 hours. Boy did I ever count the minutes. LOL DISCLAIMER!!

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2002 Report Share Posted May 2, 2002 Hey Say do your knees have this sharp burning pain? know my right knee is really bad...left knee has it ever so slightly. My Rheumy was a little puzzled since he said the Osteoarthritis in the hip would only cause pain in the groin and thigh area...not from the knee down..but I have pain in the entire leg plus the foot.

I could be wrong on this on. lOL Dr. Buckner has a report on the Collagen. I will look for it and if I have it post it to the group. DISCLAIMER!!

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2002 Report Share Posted May 2, 2002 Hey Damn...are we all falling apart or what? I've been sorta sitting back regarding all my pains, but dang...makes me feel a little better knowing it " really isn't " all in my head. I mean that rib pain is the worst...I have found if I force myself to cough it lightens up a little, but it hurts so dang bad I can hardly breath due to the pain. I haven't had any problems since being put on the Pred...so perhaps that has a lot to do with it. I don't buy that rib roll thing my Rheumy told me. This is the pits hurting like we are all old ladies...

Hugs >> Sharyn, I think you have been hanging around us too long. LOL Yes, I have pain in the entire legs and feet too. My knees don't hurt too bad and that's why I was surprised to hear my rheumy say they were really swollen and probably RP related. Go figure. I'm going to go check on that collogen thingy now.
