Having always lived an active life Bev Whitby was concerned when – at only 50 years old – joint pain began to creep in. <\/em><\/p>\n
Refusing to give in, she found something at the back of the medicine cabinet that has helped her keep moving. <\/em><\/p>\n
This is Bev\u2019s story. <\/em><\/p>\n
I used to do a lot of cycling, a bit of horse riding, a bit of running. I love to walk a lot and even now try to cycle to work and back when I can. I still think I\u2019m 25. <\/p>\n
I\u2019m an accounts assistant. I\u2019ve done a bit of everything. I\u2019ve worked in shops. I was with Balfour Beatty fleet services for about 15 years where I did a bit of everything. <\/p>\n
About 18 years ago I ran downstairs carrying the hoover and I slipped and fell. Fortunately, the vacuum stopped me falling forwards, but it did bring me down with a bump – otherwise I would have gone straight through the glass front door. In many ways I was lucky. <\/p>\n
That caused me to have back and hip problems. I was in my late 30s so I just thought, \u201cI\u2019ll carry on.\u201d But I did get X-rayed and they found the bottom of my spine was missing a disc. They assumed it had been there since birth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
