    Walking in the pool, hip strengthening exercises and stretches, knee extension exercises, and work with the TENs unit. Been going 3 times a week for two weeks now and I have two more weeks to go before I go back to the dr. I've also been wearing these knee braces that push my kneecaps in (to the right spot since mine are too far out) - they hurt after a few hours, but I've been working up a tolerance and can now get through a full day with them on.

    Have you changed anything up that helps you get out more?

    That sounds very good, I had a course of hydrotherapy years ago which was brilliant.
    Nothing really different for me other than I'm less stressed than I have been which can make a difference. I think my flares just get longer each time, it took months to come out of this last one properly
