Hi everyone! I am new here. Living Bath Central. I am a diabetic type 2, with arthritis in both knees and left hip. Is there anyone who can relate to me who l could chat with?

    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!
