Hi @JackyO
Thanks for your post and another very warm welcome to the community.
I live with quadriplegic CP and now have much more pain in my joints than when I was younger. People living with CP can experience 'physiological burnout' due to the stresses and strains that we place on our limbs/joints when we move.
I will include some information on Ageing with CP and Post impairment Syndrome
Would love to talk further
