You can feel proud of yourself for realizing that you need to move forward and not wait for the doctors. 

Everyone is different and you know more about you than anyone on the planet.

 I have been super busy all summer and moving better.
But with the up and down in temperature it has put me in a down mode.
Hard to sleep at night and all my joints are hurting bad.
The good thing is staying busy keeps my mind off it.
Till it's time to get in the house.

My friend has tried the gelitan (sp) boxes of this stuff mixed with water and before it tries to setup at all drinks it all down very quickly.

 He got a hyperextended knee roughly in 08 and was "repaired" by the VA. That's not at all perfect but does give him SOME relief. BUT, after going through all of this his knee has slowly been getting worse and worse, he's been really tempted to get it redone by someone else and the VA will pay for half. That's what he tells me. 

May or may not work. Just hoping for you!
Trying harder everyday.

Before we visited you, PatD & I visited with FF member @loggah.  During a conversation he mentioned that he could not make it without Glucosamine Chondroitin.  Since Pat has always had knee/leg pain her ears perked up and she gave it a try and there is no way to describe the relief that she has gotten from it.  They are like taking "horse pills" but well worth it.

It may not give you any relief, but it's worth the try.

I have tried and take most everything I can.
Fish oil works the best.
I haven't tried cbd oil yet only because I don't know a good kind to get.

As MM stated about what his wife takes and got relief, I have also been taking the same and it works for me, (get it at Costco) without it both thumb joints are like having an ice pick shoved in. also took away much of my shoulder and knee pains. I really noticed how well it works for me when I had to quit taking for 10 days for my colonostomy.

If you have allergies be careful of which type you get - some have shellfish mixed in the formulation and another different version does not..
It is usually marked quite clearly but you do have to make an effort to read closely especially if any allergy issues might be shellfish related ones - which is fairly common

Something in green lipped mussels is supposed to be good for joint issues, which is why it's often added to the "joint supplement" OTC medications.  That's fine, it's a natural seafood extract, unless you have a shellfish allergy.  So yes, look for that on the label if you do, and try a different one. 

It also suggests something in the mussels is causing a reaction of some sort in your body. Just depends if that's a good or bad reaction in YOUR body. Something that produces NO reaction (good or bad) is called a placebo.

Made it up the basement stairs today.
The first time in 3 years.
It was tough but felt good mentally.
