I have osteoarthritis also and back problems (3 surgeries), including a bent coccyx, (Tailbone.) I use a coccyx cushion. It really works well, but it looks kind of dumb carrying it on-board airplanes and into some restaurants. As for the osteo, I do not take any steroids or other medicines. Just tough it out. Some days are worse than others. As I type now, the osteo is not too bad, but my sciatica and coccyx hurts like crazy. It just goes to show you, "If it ain't one thing, it's another."

Phantom, sorry to hear of your difficulties. I too have back pain and pain in other joints. For me, the cold winter makes bone problems worse. But your reduction of time spent sitting at the computer may be a good thing. I saw on TV last night that people who look at screens for too long can suffer eye disorders. So by reducing the time you spend online, you may be helping your vision! I will value your contributions, however brief they may be. Good luck with the bone issues.

It's good to hear from you Phantom, and know you are still with us. I also miss your posts, and hope that the new year is good to you!

Phantom, It is good to see you back. I too find your input interesting. I have learn that pain lets us know that we are still alive. I have also learn that the drug alternatives are best left alone. :wave;
