Hi, Yes I have osteoarthritis . My joints swell frequently and cause even more pain than I already have with the fibro. I am on quite a lot of meds, but the weather doesn't help and any changes bring on the fibro. I hope you are ok at the moment

Seems like a lot of us have it. I had osteopenia first, but I stupidly ignored it and didn’t take calcium pills or drink milk to the 1200 mg recommendation. So I ended up with osteoporosis. I was on Fosamax for five years and a couple of calcium tablets ..now I’m back to osteopenia and getting 1200mg of calcium
