RE: Attention Dirtyvinyl

twaeker455-

Thanks for the info. I can't read ENOUGH on possible relief.

24-7 PAIN really is exhausting mentally besides the obvious physical discomfort.
My specialist years ago advised me of the only known treatment, which is ridiculously invasive surgery. The outcome is SHORTER LENGTH arms from removing the damaged pieces,the surrounding bone structure "falls" into the void also resulting in limited range of motion. I'm leaving out details but that's my option at this point. No amazing stem cell technology or whatever is on the horizon.

Since all the cartilage in these areas are gone, I'm basically screwed. I can do most things, I just have limits with varying degrees of pain. My guitar playing and physical hobbies-cycling/skiing have time limits due to discomfort.

How does this area look? On bad days, the inflammation looks like I have a quartet slice of a ping pong ball sunk into my wrists! Picture a normal range of motion of a limp wrist. About 90 degress? I have about 30.

Oh well, when I plop a favorite record on the table, temporary relief from both the tinnitus and arthritis. We grit our teeth/smile and be greatful things aren't worse as others.

I do have a craving for a fabulous chicken soup, as JURB has recomended.
