Subject: Hello - recently diagnosed
just wanted to say hi. I'm 48 and have recently been diagnosed as having osteoarthritis in my hip. I have been told to lose weight and excercise more. The pain has eased & I now only get it if I overdo things. Has anyone ever managed to lose the pain completely? When I first had it I was unable to walk more than a few metres but can now walk about 5k a day before pain sets in so already an improvement - I'm heading for 1 1/2 stone weight loss but ahve a fair bit to gp
