Hello Thurston - 

--8<--cut 

WC>>> My knee is badly messed up too but nothing compared to
WC>>> the back. 

-> > snipped<- 

TA> Have either of you tried glucosamine with chondroitin yet? 

Nope, never heard of it before. 

--8<--cut 

TA> So long as one isn't intolerant of shellfish, it generally
TA> doesn't have any side affects; and hopefully you may be
TA> lucky also. Start with a two 1500mg capsule 3x/day for the
TA> first 90 days and then moderate down to one 1500mg capsule
TA> three times per day. I find the Mason Vitamine Inc. of
TA> Miami Lakes, Fl capsules (1500mg glucosamine sulfate and
TA> 1500mg chondroitin sulfate with a smeegin of vitamin c and
TA> manganese) are the easiest to get down. 

Thanks, I've saved the information for more 'research'. 

I've never had any medication for my knee since the last
adrenalin shot about 35 years ago. I couldn't afford to have it
show up on medical records and since the damage doesn't show on
X-rays it can't eliminate me from being hired. I used to do
physical type jobs off/on when younger. With six kids I needed
work. :-) 

Lately, since the shoulder injuries a few years ago I've used
Motrin only when the pain is intolerable. I am very sensitive
to medication since I seldom take any and the Motrin does help
(so far). I know old age will rob me of my muscle tone and the
knee will become intolerable one day soon.
