Hi Nancy,
I used to do all of that. My hands hurt so bad in the morning I can hardly brush my teeth, let alone drive., or get up and down off the yoga mat. It's not pretty. Massage us comforting with the right person and music. It's so hot here, I don't go out much and am careful of isolating. I'll look for a geriatric group. I'm in Las Vegas if that's permissable to say. Take care.

Agree so far about exercise. Knock wood. Before this malady hit, I had been working out for over 40 years at a high level, both cardio and strengthening. Of course, I had to adjust for age and osteoporosis, but working out has always been a life saver for me, mentally, physically and emotionally. For the first time since Jan, about 6 wks ago, I began 1/2 hr of walking again.
At first, my body balked, but I continued and it's much better. If I have a flare, I do it anyway. Am also doing some strengthening but no wgts yet. Started Tai Chi a few wks ago and I do have that darned upper arm pain afterwards, but I'm going to continue and see how it goes.

You are very fortunate to have a wonderful medical group to care for you. That has to be a real source of comfort for you. Many of us are at loose ends, running around like chickens with our heads cut off. I've all but given up on docs.

May you continue to thrive.
