Hello Everyone,
I was recently diagnosed with gonococcal arthritis. It was the most unbearable pain I have ever had in my life. Plus they also did a surgery on my right knee to extract fluid cultures, that one was hurting the most.
Currently, I am on IV antibiotics. I cannot walk. I use a walker to go to restroom. The pain is there but better. I do take prescribed pain medication.
This whole experience has traumatized me. Please tell me it will get better. I just wanna go back to normal walking and my life.
From what I read this is supposed to be a rare side effect of gonorrhea. Sadly, I had to get it. Has anyone had this?
