Hi. I was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis in my hands. I decided not to take any medication as the symptoms weren't life changing.

I now have osteoarthritis in my hip and lower back, confirmed by an X-ray. I'm a runner and absolutely gutted that I haven't been able to run for 2 months. I'm hoping the pain in my hip is just inflammation and will go away. The pain came on suddenly so I'm hoping it will go away.

Feeling down but know other people suffer more than me! 😯
