Hi, diagnosis two years ago with kneecap arthritis and due to caregiver duties I push it aside. Caregiver duties had ended seven months ago and it seems the arthritis has worsened and in new places in the last couple of months. As my doctor says it been here all along, I just push it aside. I when from kneecap to back, hands, shoulders and both knees arthritis. In addition, nerves problem in the back, hands and legs. Physical therapy does not help. Trying ice compress, warm compress, anti-inflammatory and steroids. Trying to stay positive but it just seems hopelesss. Any advice?
