Joint issues suck. Mine really make it difficult a lot of the time, way too much of the time, even with pain meds.

The worst is at night, when I can't lie flat on my back, because both hips hurt, I can't roll over on my right side, because  my right hip hurts, and  I can't lie on my left side because  my left hip and left knee hurt like fuck, and  so does the nerve  damage along that side of my leg.

Although interestingly, I've been, although its my first day, finding that taking methadone, it helps with the neuropathic  pain, whilst morphine or oxy only do if they are taken in doses large enough to knock me out completely or else make me so sleepy most all I can do is keep falling asleep playing videogames. But methadone has  some, although not strong, NMDA antagonist effects, and this type of compound (NMDA antagonists) are excellent for neuropathic pain. I can't even feel anything awful if I run my hand up and down the side of my leg, something no dose of morphine or/and oxycodone could ever manage.

There's something wrong with your website Odeon. It's putting my posts in the wrong thread.  :tinfoil:

Well at least you can tell if my posts are in the wrong thread.

This is I2, though. "Wrong thread" is just a concept. :M

I'm 53 years old and I don't have arthritis.
I'm your age and have psoriatic arthritis. I'm lucky in that it isn't destructive, at least not yet, but it's a pain, figuratively and literally.
In my 20s I had arthritis in my wrists (I don't know what type, I know there are many) and took Vioxx for it and it worked like magic before it was taken off the market. Now I have no constant pain but I can't put any weight on my hands or my wrists complain big time.
Damn, I'm sorry. :(
Thank you, it's ok.

It's weird though, I wouldn't mind some scans or x-rays or something so I know what damage happened in my 20s. And what type of arthritis it was. I don't know of anyone that's had the same problem.
I know young people with those *symptoms* but I think for them it's usually carpal tunnel or some other nerve or soft tissue problem.

(Often learn about people's wrist problems in pole when suggesting they try a move using bracket grip.)
it is well known that PMS Elle is evil.

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

That sounds painful just thinking about it. I seriously doubt I could hold my considerable weight in pole dancing.

I do weekly physio in a swimming pool with a group of others with similar problems as mine. Most are my age or thereabouts, but there's also this young guy, in his early twenties. No fun to get problems so early in life. :(

Not sure what part of Australia you're in (watch me be wrong and you're not even on that continent) but I know there's a pretty good pole scene at least in some parts.

And you'd be able to do pole.  Not necessarily that grip right off the bat, but pole is for nearly every body type (possibly exceptions being people who have things like like extreme shoulder or back problems who couldn't do it safely).

Right near my psychiatrist's office in East Perth, there's Bobbi's Pole Dance Studio, painted pink. That's the only one I've seen and it brings you to mind every time I see it.

http://perth.bobbispolestudio.com.au/classes/  They have a $15 beginners no-commitment class.  I think you should go and report back.  Don't think I've heard of it but it looks a hell of a lot better put together than either of the studios I go to. :thumbup:

I don't think I'll go. I'm fat as and I don't own any shorts or high heels. Plus there's the whole people thing. There's people there. I'll just remain curious.

You shouldn't need heels for an intro class.  Shorts, ideally, yes.  You also don't need to be skinny.  (I still do it, with my mid-thirties desk-job chub.)

If you don't like people, schedule a private lesson :P
