[QUOTE="Robinredbreast, post: 368543, member: 44643"] [b]Re: Re Type 2 and arthritis[/b] Hi there, this is interesting as I too have problems with my fingers,thumbs, hands, wrists and also elbows, stiffness, pain, slight swelling and my joints are always 'clicking/cracking', the left side is worse, even though I am right handed. Also left knee is painful and left ankle has restricted movement, both of my hips and outside leg area are sore to the touch, but not when walking and for the past couple of weeks a lump has appeared on the inside of my left foot just below big toe ( which someone said was probably a bunion :o ) I have had tests and its not RA (as this is other auto immune disease that attacks the body, I know RA is associated with Type 1 which I am) My doctor has prescribed 2 weeks of anti inflammatory tablets and to see him again next week, but theres no change really. I have recently been diagnosed with Osteoporosis and asked my GP if there was a connection and he said no and he said no. I would like to know what is going on too with my joint problems, so its back to the drawing board. I do wonder if my GP actually believes me because its one problem after another. Good luck Linzi nand I hope nyou find out what is causing the pain. Take care RRB [/QUOTE]
