Arthritis?
So... Madi has always had joint pain... knees, ankles, hips... and we have always written it off as part her scoli.
Lately, her writsts have ached really bad; esp. the left one. We have x-rayed and checked... yesterday, her pediatrician said that she thinks it is arthritis. We have started the screening process.
Research tells me that we probably hit the mark... unfortunately, she cannot take motrin or other suggested pain relievers because they thin her blood and we don't use those due to surgery precautions.
I am going to try the natural route... vitamins, diet adjustments, etc. along with gentle stretching and exercise.
Madi is quite upset about all of this, and rightfully so. Me, too....
