Which of your joints hurt the most?

For me, it's been my shoulders for years. Causes such a problem when sleeping, too.

My knee started hurting while cooking dinner in March '10 and it hasn't stopped yet.  It sometimes feels a little better, then a little worse, but never gone.  Annoying!

Ooh thats a tie I think, my knees which both need knee replacements hurt alot right now. But I am getting cortisone shots in them and my next one is on Monday, so that will help them out alot.

But my neck and spine hurt alot too, and unfortunately there is no cortisone shot to fix that. Hugs!

For years, it was the joints in my limbs: fingers, wrists, ankles and knees.  But, for the last year or longer, it's been my back and shoulders.

Shoulders most of the time, then sometimes my hips, knees, lastly my hands and feet.

When my joints swell up I get immediate relief when I go to the Orthopedic doc and he drains them. I have been offered methotrexate, but I hate to add more drugs to my regimen.

This has been a major problem for me and my son who both have CD. The more active the disease the worse it is!
When I was more active and not on Predisone, I walked with a limp half the time, and my handwriting looked like a kindergarten student! I slept with heating pads on different parts of my body. The traditional stuff they won't give to CD patients..

My ankels kill me if I'm on my feet to long, especially since I've lost a lot of muscle mass.
