Fanny I get the red face too! I hope you are resting that knee. I get regular steroid injections on various parts of my anatomy, including my rear end! The advice is always to rest the joint for 24 hrs to allow it to settle.
After yesterday's outing, I realise now that I cannot put off any longer, asking to be referred to the hip surgeon.
I was in agony yesterday and also today, but nothing to the extent of annsixty, ? whose operation is way overdue!
MY RA consultant wanted to do it a year ago and I put him off, as I was overwhelmed by hospital appointments and procedures.
Shielding has been a blessing in disguise, as it has cut down on those visits.
I hope you get some relief.
