Found Out I have Osteoarthritis in my neck.Rating: (votes: 0) CRAP!I hope you get better and get the support you need from your workplace! Comment:
osteoarthritis is a degenerative condition...if lifting causes you pain, maybe it's time to think of a different job setting....not something anyone wants to be "forced" into, but you need to think of your health and quality of life...
Comment:
Many of us older nurses have osteo-arth. If you are not on coumadin, ibuprofen helps. Always ask for help when needed, use lift devices. Supervisory positions might be less stress on the joints.
