Focus on Wellness: Chat with Dr. Pat: Arthritis
Friday October 24th 2:00-3:00 pm $2 drop-in
Chat with Dr. Pat: Arthritis – It can’t be cured but it can be controlled.
By Pat Gunton
There are about 100 different types of arthritis, but the Chat on Oct. 24 at 2
p.m. will discuss the most common ones in Canada with the primary focus on
osteoarthritis which is caused by “wear and tear” on our joints as we age.
Diagnostic tests will be reviewed both through lab work and x-rays. Treatment
choices will be discussed, questions will be encouraged, and we will all emerge
more knowledgeable and sympathetic to our friends and family who suffer with
painful joints.
