Hi, I know how it is to suffer from degenerative joint disease. I too, suffer from this, and have been for over 5 years. I was in a bad wreck and was out of work for over a year due to broken bones. I have had numerous of operations, but had to go out on disablity due, to the disease that has attack my brittle bones. I pray that your days will be as painless as can be. I am on ultram, 2- four times a day. This helps alot, and has only been the only thing that has came close to help me in dealing with the everyday chores that I have to do. Talk over with your doctor to see if maybe there is a medicine out there that can help you cope with the everyday pain, that I know you are experiencing. My heart goes out to you. God Bless you and keep you close.
