Janet, I have arthritis and if that's what it is, there are some excellent medications for it. Arthritis is not only painful, it destroys the joint if you don't treat it... so I'm glad you're getting it checked.

I have mine in my hands, one knee and lower spine. The WORST thing I can do is to pamper it. My parents families both have it, so I figure in my case it's genetic too. Just a word of warning... do NOT let them put a needle into your knee to check fluid without numbing it or knocking you out. I did that and literally flew off the table screaming. It was worse than any of my natural childbirths.
