I have symptoms and an arthritis diagnosis to go with.

Some things are easy to diagnose.

I have arthritis in my knees. I walk with my toes inward and "w" sit. I was diagnosed with arthritis at the ripe age of 24. Got so bad at one point they were talking about injections into my knee caps. Glad we got it under control before that.

I had to quit running cross country five years ago because of a cartilage injury in both knees. The next year I tore my MCL wrestling, which healed but allowed my kneecap to move around more. That wore away some cartilage under my kneecap, so I had it scoped. Now I can feel when it's going to rain in that knee.

Don't think I have this.
