Health Concerns Arthritis: "Everybody's Disease" In coming weeks this column will feature facts about arthritis, including its forms, its symptoms, its treatment and the resources available to help the ar- thritis sufferer cope with the condition. Name the most common chronic disease in this country. What's your answer? If you said "ar- thritis", you get top marks. What do you know about arthritis? That it's a condi- tion of the elderly? That it's mild, involving minor aches and pains? That it's untreatable, an inevitable by-product of aging? If that's how you see ar- thritis, you just lost some marks. For, in fact, these are the popular myths about arthritis. The truth may surprise you. Did you know ... e Over 3.5 million Cana- dians -- or | in 7 people -- have some form of arthritis. e Arthritis affects people of all ages -- including children, young adults, the middle-aged and the elderly. ¢ More than 30,000 children have arthritis. e "Everybody's disease"' is another name for ar- thritis, because it affects so many of us, at any age. e The average arthritis victim waits four years after symptoms appear before he/she seeks medical help. The delay can be costly, creating ir- reversible joint damage. e Arthritis costs Canada over $2 billion a year in health services, drugs, lost wages, etc. e Almost 60% of arthritis sufferers are women. e Arthritis pain can be acute. It can mean long- term disability. © No cure exists for ar- thritis. But new techniques are available to help people with arthritis cope better with their condition. Ar- thritis research has made important advances. Warning Signals Early' diagnosis is essen- tial. If you suspect you suf- fer from arthritis, consult your doctor. Here are the warning signals, prepared by The Arthritis Society: ¢ Persistent pain and stiff- ness after getting up in the morning. e Uncommon pain, tenderness or swelling in any joint, especially if it is accompanied by fatigue, unexplained weight loss or fever. e Recurrent or persistent pain and stiffness in the neck, lower back, knees, wrists or hands, especially if there is no obvious reason. e Any recurrence of these symptoms, especially if they involve more than one joint or joints in different parts of the body. Your doctor will per- form a wide variety of tests before making a diagnosis of arthritis. These can in- clude blood tests, urine tests, X-rays, and others. You may be referred to a rheumatologist, i.e. a rheumatic-disease specialist, for special care or a final diagnosis. In later columns, we'll look at a few common, forms of arthritis, and how the disease is treated.

Simons Clerk Co-Ordinator Township of Terrace Bay One the greatest mistakes many travellers make is packing too many things. "Remember that the length of your stay does not determine the number of things you should pack,"' says Clothing and_ Textiles Specialist Margaret Loewen of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food's rural organizations and services branch. : "Instead, base your travel wardrobe on the activities you've. planned while on vacation and on your destina- tion's climate."' Choose easy-care items that mix and match to create several different outfits. For example, choose basic wardrobe items in a neutral color that can be teamed up with several co-ordinating shirts and accéssories. A typical travel wardrobe for women consists of a pair pie RES RE eee a SS Se ee a two-piece print dress which can be mixed and matched with several tops. Include a sweater (just in case it gets cool in the even- ings) and to create a casual look under a blazer. Cotton and polyester blends travel better than pure cotton fabrics. Choose cotton knits or cot- ton with a "wrinkled look" such as seersucker or pre- washed denim. Wool is also a good traveller because it resists both dirt and wrinkles. Be sure to pack heavy items (such as shoes, a hair dryer, a travel iron or your cosmetic case) on-the bottom of the suitcase, next to the hinged end; when carrying the suitcase, these items will be on the bottom and won't crush other items. Cushion each fabric fold with another item. For exam- nlo tiek a ralladn TK chirt in- side the main fold of a pair of pants. Pack larger clothing items on their hangers if you have enough room in your luggage. Take along some plastic bags for a wet bathing suit or towel. Roll non-crushables (like underwear and T-shirts) and use them to fill in the spaces at the sides of the bag. Stuff the toes of your shoes with soft socks or pantyhose. Carry spillables (like make-up, shampoo, shaving cream) in self-sealing plastic bags or plastic-lined cases. To help prevent leaks, place a bit of absorbent cot- ton in the top of plastic con- tainers. If you are travelling by air, you can wear the bulky items in your travel wardrobe and that will give you a little more rTaAAmM in woalr ciniteaca
