Hi David 63 I can relate to what you must be going through. I have a degenerative spine. I have had both hips replaced through arthritis. My knees are now incredibly painful - so much so that I sometimes just sit and cry. I now have arthritis in my jaw and neck, which feels like me whole body is breaking down - which I suppose it is!
