It's Only Arthritis... Blog

Anyone that’s ever uttered those words, clearly has never experienced debilitating pain. Or maybe they have, just not from Arthritis.

Maybe they consider whatever they have to trump what they believe to be a minor ailment in comparison and probably would tell you to, “just get on with it.”

I’m here to tell you they don’t know what they’re talking about!

 

Taking Things for Granted

Clearly Arthritis can affect people in different ways. The lucky ones don’t experience any pain at all but more often than not, it aches, it pains and it prevents you from living a full life.

You never realise just quite how often you use a particular part of your body until it causes you pain.

Whether you have it in just your hands or your entire body, it can significantly affect the way you do things.

Things others take for granted. Things maybe you once took for granted too. Opening jars, holding cups, boiling the kettle, writing, shaking hands (it isn’t just Arthritis that’s preventing us from exchanging a firm one of those right now either, to be fair), sitting down, standing up, kneeling on the floor, getting back up off the floor, climbing and descending the stairs, walking any distance, driving, even getting out of bed.

Mobility Problems are Expensive

You get to the point where you’ll try anything from the weird to the wonderful out of desperation just as much as hope.

Regardless of whichever category any given product falls into, everything costs money and it can be an expensive mistake if it doesn’t do what it says on the tin.

At its most debilitating, Arthritis can lead to time off work, a change in job to something less physical with potentially less pay, even early retirement.

Combine that with the added expense of increased visits to the GP, hospital, osteopath, chaeropractor and/or acupuncturist, it soon becomes apparent that money can become very tight, very quickly.

Mobility Aids are Essential Items

Mobility aids aren’t luxury items. A mobility scooter can be the difference between you getting out of your house and not. A lifeline for so many, allowing you the freedom to come and go as you please and not having to rely on anyone’s assistance. Exactly how you like it!

You’d sooner not need one but life has dealt you this hand and if it provides you with that extra bit of independence, you’ll find a way to get one.
