So if it's not one thing it's another right I had my MRI 's done both knees both hips. And arthrogram on hip ( NOT FUN) shows arthritis not severe. But having clean up surgery on both knees thurs is the first one then wait mayb a month and do the other. The dr also wants me to get steroid in hip. Not sure bout that but basically that's where I have to start he isn't against doing surgery on hip but wants to try the least things first. I've already tried injections in knees so here we go. Good thing is though he doesn't believe in making people wait untill they are much older to do replacements. He said why would you give up the best years of your life in crippling pain and get a joint replaced at a time in your life when it doesn't matter as much. So I was glad of that. He said sometimes RA requires replacement even when osteo isn't severe if your pain is too bad because if you don't have a joint thre for it to attack then it can't I hadn't thought if that before. Wat do y'all think.
