My Grandson of 14 just got diagnosed with Arthritis in both knees. It surprised me that someone that young could have it. He still went to football camp for a week. I was just thinking you could have Arthritis also starting in your knees.

Hope you are feeling better. I hadn't been on much lately due to depression but wanted to say hi to you.

Thank you Ada! I hope you are feeling better now!

I have always had postural issues which is why I think my PT's are wondering if I could have any back issues that aren't RSD related. They have told us that they wont be able to do any tests to find out though until we get the RSD more under control. My postural issues have got worse since I developed RSD and I have a real hard time sitting upright. My PT's are always giving me exercises to try and help but they don't seem to have that much impact.

I'm sorry to hear that your grandson suffers from Athritis also! I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Athritis at the same time as I was diagnosed with RSD when I was 12 - it surprised us also that someone so young could get it. We have been thinking that the knee pain could be athritis related also with how painful my joints are and how they click. I was sat on the computer chair earlier with my leg slightly bent and all of a sudden, it let out the biggest crack and was extremely painful!

I hope you're having a good day and feeling better! I have been down with the depression also so if you ever want to talk, I am here for you!
