Hey Liesa, welcome here! I’m glad that you found us, but so sorry that you are a member of this club. Yes, we’re all getting older, but that seems to be the first diagnosis some docs reach for. Mine was the same. And then an x-ray found serious foot damage.
I’m in Ontario as well, and I just want to make sure that you know about the research clinic at Toronto Western Hospital. The discussion thread is here. Between the good people on this community and the fantastic research doctors there, I got my life back after almost 20 years of complaints. (All the complaints blown off as menopause, getting older, working too hard, not exercising enough, blah blah blah, I quit complaining until the day I could no longer walk.)
We’re so glad you’re here, and we hope that you will be glad too!
Post an introduction thread, why don’t you? We’d love to know more about you.
All the best
