I have dealt with all the symptoms related with the following for years . But recently , like the last 2 months , I Have been in HORRIBLE pain in my hands , mostly in my thumbs going into lower arm , to the point I drop things and it hurts to be bumped or touched.
I run them under hot water, wear arthritis gloves anything for relief. And second, I fell in march and broke my right femur havent been the same since. Leg healed , But I have developed HORRIBLE pain in both legs from my knees down, to the point its very hard to walk , some times even just standing up to go to bath room at night and the more Im on them the worse they get almost like they wont hold me up they are so sore. Its so bad I just cry.
