No displasia yet but is on a regimen of glucoseamine for arthritis. I have been letting him swim with a life jacket but it is getting to be to cold for that now. Can exercise help arthritis? I am particularly concerned because I will be living on the second floor untill spring so he must use stairs about 3x a day.

How long before I need another operation?

Right now, it’s the pointer on my left hand. It’s usually one finger at a time, but sometimes it’ll be two. It goes back and forth between my right and left hands, and is completely unpredictable. Sometimes it’s only slightly swollen, and causes mild-moderate pain, other times its swelled up so big that I can’t move it and causes extreme pain. It happens out of nowhere. Sometimes it’ll happen twice in one month, sometimes it won’t happen for 6 months.

I showed my doctor a couple of years ago, and he had no idea. He’s not some good-for-nothin’ doctor, either- he’s the best doctor I have ever had. He even brought in another doctor to have a look and he had no idea either.

I guess I’m wondering if anyone out there in the [internet] world has a similar problem. Does anybody have an idea what this is?

I guess I should mention that I’m not a little old lady; I’m a 26 year old white male, I work in construction, I play the guitar (for fun), I am on buprenorphine for opiate problems (I was also on opiates when this problem started about 3 years ago), I don’t drink alcohol very often, I tend to stay pretty well hydrated, my diet isn’t great, but it’s certainly not terrible (I eat my fruits and veggies, and I don’t eat meat- other than fish).

Any ideas? Thanks.

Both my father and grandmother had severe cases and though I’d only 19, my hands cramp and ache often, so, I’m sure I’m not too far off. Being an artist, costumer, baker, writer and gamer…. well, life would be nothing short of miserable if it was hard to work with my hands.

Any advice?
I’m not really looking for a drug at the moment- I’d rather go for preventative methods.

What’s a good brand that would be good for my husband, and where could I purchase it? I looked online but I only found some that you could order online, but I prefer going to a store and getting them.

She’s a smart girl with a lot of energy and I’m sure she’s getting bored just going for walks and playing in the park. I used to do agility with her, but she’s too old for that now. I know swimming would be great but nowhere around here allows dogs.

What are some fun activities for her that won’t bother her joints?
