I did let my Gp know that I have been ahving mroe joint pain lately.  It does happen to be on the leg which he says is 1 inch shorter than the other..I have been to many docs thru the years and this PA is the 1st to find this...so I wonder

Supposedly I am realigned again and it is a simple lunge type stretch that puts it back...

He thinks my knee and ankle pain is linked to this however I have been Dx with CD arthritis.  Now he jsut fixed it and he checks it every 3 months when I go in for a visit and I was off by the width  of his thumb.  Now about 1hour ago my knee and ankle started having intense aches and throbbing.  they are giving off heat but no visual swelling yet (I have had it really bad before where they have even drainede fluid).  Any ideas why I would be fine all day ( done nothing strenuous) yet now I ache and before bed is the worst I cant sleep I just keep moving the painful joints around and they snap and pop...

just so frustrated

The cracking and popping sound like the arthritis. Are you having any kind of damp weather going on? If so, sometimes that can affect the joints. Also, have you ever checked into seeing if you have Fibro or not? I am thinking you do, so you might want to get in with a Rheumy and discuss your joint pain.

I live in San Diego and we are expecting a big rain storm tonight. All day yesterday my whole body was on fire with the pain. The only thing that helped was to take my pain meds and lay down for awhile. Its better today, but yesterday was awful. Good luck!
