Saw. GP last week about painful joints... Not talking about "oooh that's a bit sore" but "shit a brick I am in so much pain I can hardly walk and why the fuck do my hands and toes ( as well as the larger joints) hurt so fucking much to the point I can't do things like take my debit card out of my purse"... So I told him this. And the fact I haven't had a period since March and I suspect I am going through the menopause as before my periods stopped I was irregular, had pmt+++++ and other shit.
So he listened and said it could be
A menopausal arthritis
B my thyroid needs checking ( I have an under active thyroid)
C rheumatoid arthritis ( strong maternal family history)
He has said whatever it is he will help me - nice chap.
Anyone else in pain?
