Me also, especially after meals. Light meals or medium meals
my appetite isn't what it used to be. So I really don't eat big meals. Small portions work best for me. I treat myself on weekends. Slice of pie or cheesecake. I do that to keep my weight up. So that's me over eating. 
, You know your body best! Glad you have found something that works for you and are able to treat yourself, you deserve it!

Yes! If I sit for too long, whether in the house, car or work, my hips ache! When I first get up it feels like the joints are playing tug of war with one another. It literally feels like the joints are tearing. It does get better once I walk or loosen up.
Loopy, I used to be able to drive 10hrs. Now I'm luck to drive 2-3 hrs without cramping up and pain. Good luck
so painful for sure. do you use any ointments to help ease the pain some? ~Racquel~ lupus.net team member
Yes, and I've actually had my left hip replaced, and may have to have the right hip replaced in the future.
We're glad to hear the surgery and recovery went well.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.
Be well, Doreen (Team Member)
