My knee psuedo-locked from the weather and I feel like a horse with a broken leg that's about to be put down. I am so so sooooo thankful my forearm crutches are coming in today because I'd be bed bound otherwise...

How Probiotics Can Lower Joint Inflammation: Shares Orthopaedic Surgeon

Emerging clinical data reveals a powerful biochemical pathway known as the gut-joint axis, where the intestinal microbiome directly influences systemic musculoskeletal pathways. Led by orthopedic specialist Dr Karthik Gudaru, this analysis evaluates how targeted probiotic supplementation helps downregulate pro-inflammatory cytokines, actively lowering joint inflammation in rheumatoid and osteoarthritis patients.

By stabilizing gut microbiota, patients can complement standard arthritic treatments, manage swelling, and improve overall joint mobility through evidence-based nutritional strategies...

What people think arthritis is: achy joints

What arthritis actually is: extreme joint pain, joint stiffness, joint instability, permanent degenerative joint damage, bone spurs, inflammation, swelling, fluid retention, reduced bone density, chronic fatigue, brain fog, temperature sensitivity and intolerance, limited mobility… and so much more.

I’m in my early/mid thirties, I’ve had this for over twenty years and I’ll continue to have it for the rest of my life. And it’s only going to get worse. Something no amount of physical therapy or mental heath treatment is going to change.

IT’S NOT JUST ACHY JOINTS!!

Being almost out of weed and staring down the long barrel of the week is a special sort of hell.

I am in so much pain it’s truly breathtakingly wild.

I don’t have to move. Just being in bed hurts.

Getting out of bed is agony.

I’m so tired of living like this.

I need a job. I need medical marijuana to be covered by insurance or I need a pain specialist.

I just had to vent. I’m tired and in pain and rationing my medical weed to the point it’s not doing much so I have to decide if I am just going to go for it till I run out- get the regular amount of pain relief for a day. Or- if I’m going to continue rationing for at least a LITTLE pain relief every day.

Exhausted and in pain should be tattooed on my forehead.

Just a rant

But I hate how ?weak? I have become since the painkillers stopped helping with pain. Shit like alcohol and cigarettes, I know that they're horrible for health and they don't even help with pain but there's this bit of hope that "this time it'll help" and I keep trying it.

I was never prone to addiction, and while I sometimes had some alcohol it was always recreational, I never smoked so this is like a HUGE downgrade in my self image.

What I'm afraid of the most is that eventually my nudging will work and I'll get my hands on drugs, and yet I still keep on trying
