If your interested in something "natural" for the knees (or other joints)
try Glucosamine.
It is sold anywhere that you can buy vitamins.
I hear it works great. I know allot of people with arthritis who take it.
I have been considering taking it.....I know it can't possibly help all my
problems but worth a try for "some" relief.
P.S. I also have Chondomalasia which was extremely bad after the lengthening
of my hip replacement leg.

By being only what "you" are, you can awaken each morning to a new day
that's an opportunity to seek whatever you want-
with no previous deceptions to get in your way.

Dear Sally,
As you know, the inside of my knee cap is rubbing on the femur on both
knees. I have been given several different anti inflamatories that
havent seemed to help much. The last being 800 mg of Ibruprofen 2 x a
day. When I talked to my DR about changing my pain meds, I asked her if
there was anything else that I could take for my knees for the pain &
inflamation. She gave me a script forMethylprednisolone 4mg. It is a
substitued for Medrol Dosepack 21 tab. It is for 6 days. You start off
with 6 pills & decrease it by 1 each day. After the first 2-3 pills, I
noticed my knees didn't hurt! It has been months since I didn't have
pain in my knees! We are hoping after I finish the pills, they will have
a lasting affect. I sure hope so! I have such a hard time sitting &
standing. & then my knees just hurt, and pop and hurt.
love robin
