I've had a condition for about five years. It started in my knees and it took about 18 months for the hospital to tell me what I had. I have good days when I'm in little pain and other days when I'm in loads of pain and I can't move. I have had some mental health problems as well and I was on tablets. I'm now a million times better but I've put on a lot of weight because of all the tablets I was on. I've given up smoking for about two years. I've started a slim fast diet and I'm trying to do a little excise but I'm in lots of pain afterwards. Is there any foods or excise that I can try that is not going to cause me pain?
What did the hospital tell you was wrong with your knee?
In the meantime, please follow this link to a blog I wrote recently on the understanding and management of pain. It should help you with the dietary changes that can help.
Best wishes and please let us know what the hospital said.
