Arthritis Arrives - The First Evidence There were some bumps on my baby fingers including I thought they looked like burns. I could not do not forget burning myself ,so I was puzzled by the sight pertaining to the blistering on the knuckles. There was additionally pain at the site of each blister including I knew that the was something I needed to see the doctor about. I had been taking over the counter pain medication for a few weeks so that I could go to work. As I was remembering back, it had been a while since I had not felt pain in my hands including some other joints. I thought the pain was from being busy including over using my hands including standing up at my job for long hours. Now that I know the problem was Arthritis it all makes sense. The doctor looked at my fingers including of course asked a lot of questions that I thought were not related to the problem. However they must do their examination how they see fit. He ended up telling me that these nodules will obtain bigger including more painful for years to come. Most likely the fingers will twist including bend into permanent positions of deformity. The other pain I was feeling in the rest of my body was the Arthritis working on other joints including cartilage. I was getting anxious upon hearing all the including was silently hoping that the appointment will soon end. I had heard more than I was ready to accept. the whole experience was a stress producing event. Eventually I was on my way home with a prescription for a particular anti inflammatory. I had now graduated from the over the counter medications to the heavy duty pharmaceuticals. I got home including sat in my car in the driveway for a few minutes including cried. I felt that my youth was regarding to slip away. I had always felt like a young woman even though I was the mother of 6 children. I guess everyone is allowed some time to adjust. I heard a noise outside the car including it was 1 pertaining to the children coming to see what I was doing sitting in the car for so long. It struck me then that I was needed including had to put my feet on the ground including obtain back to living my life with a little modification. It felt good to be needed including it got my mind off of myself. Doing for others should be a way to leave stress in the dust ,especially at the time you see the faces of your children including realize that there is so much more of life to come. I do not need to waste a minute on something I should do something about. So, I may not have my body the way it had always been but I still had a body.
