Arthritis - anyone any experiences?

....especially with children/as a child yourselves?

It looks as though Daisy has some kind of arthritis on her hands and feet and is having a lot of difficulty walking, can't run, can't do stairs easily etc. We've literally just found out and the intermaweb has been helpful but ultimately depressing and I'd far rather hear someone say 'Ive got it/had it, this is how it was for me'.

Shes got an appointment for blood tests and xrays just before New Year so will have a definitive diagnosis then but looking at the websites I'd hazard a guess that it's the poly-thingy one.

Ugh I feel sick
