Cooking Meals And Cleaning With Arthritis Posted: 12-20-04 17:21pm
The arthritis in my hands and legs has
gotten worse and it is now almost
impossible to clean my house, cook, and do
the basic everyday activities without
being in excruciating pain. My husband
won’t lift a finger. If this continues I
will starve to death in a very dirty
house.

I wish I could give you a hug janet. Are
you on the proper meds for your pain? I
switched meds last year and most of my
pain is manageable now. I can clean but I
try not to – I got a roomba robot vacuum
for a present from my grandson last year
and I love it. I plug it in and it
vacuums when there is dirt. I can do the
work but why should i. Let’s stick
together. If you need to talk one on one,
please write me. I can tell you ways to
get what you need from your husband and
you can tell me what kind of pain
management program you are on and what
meds you are taking. Talk to you soon.

I've been given salsalate to take for the
inflammation I get..Sometimes i'm given
tramadol for the pain,at times I just buy
the tylenol arthristis pills at wal-mart.I
see two different doctors for the two
different types of arthristis I have..
What kind of arthristis do you have:?
