This is my story
I am now 60. Married with 3 Grown up children and 6 Grandchildren.
Had to leave part-time work/retired Nov.06.(Didn't want to)Had to, as I feel worse taking time off work, as I don't look as if I'm ill really. Back problems, which have bothered me for years (even when I was slim). Have always been active, woiuld rather walk than sit in a car.I do not drive, have never wanted to.Have always eaten healthily. No fats, but have a sweet tooth. Have gradually put on weight in the last 10 years, partly because of Comfort eating, during the times I am in pain and can't get out and about. Pain can make me feel depressed at times. You just don't go out socially any more. You have to make yourself get ready, even if it takes ages. The only problem is buying clothes and feeling disgusted at myself for not making an effort to lose weight. The problem is you just can't exercise the same.I do love swimming. Problem is getting there. At last I am getting Xrays and I should know exactly which type of Arthritis it is. I also am getting help from Podiatrist at Bio Mechanics Clinic. Trying to get shoes to fit me. Would be pleased to hear from anyone in the same position as myself.
