I usually have pain in my joints(back, knees, hands) Here is the problem... My right elbow hurts so bad. I can't straighten it all the way. I have had 2 shots the second one only lasted a month. It is swollen, hurts to the touch and of course painful. The bone is like sticking out. It is like you feel arthritis on the bone. I am still trying to get into a rhuemy but you know how it goes.

Thank guys
Stacy

(((((((Stacy))))))) that sounds very painful. If you can't get in to see a Rheumy then the next best thing is a GP. Maybe there's something going on outside the usual issues you have, especially with that bone sticking out and the swelling.

Stacy that sounds very painful. I hope you can get in touch with your doc soon, so they can give you more treatment. Could you try a hot or cold compress in the meantime?

Take care

My GP is tired of looking at me. Right now I am putting a Lidoderm patch I got for my back on it to see if it will help. Thanks for listening.

Hi Stacy,

It sounds so painful my heart goes out to you. If the Lidoderm patch does not do the trick chat with your doctor about something stronger. I hope you get on with feeling better soon.:wink2::wink2::wink2:
