Thanks BJ

I hope you don't get it like my dad had. I watched him since his forties get worse every year. It was made worse from Intestinal problems from taking too much aspirin, Tylenol and other pain relief so he could still work. I feel for you and really hope Modern Medicine has made some new advances.

You might try some diet changes, Jacie is on what is called the Keto diet, it eliminates a lot of chemicals and prepared foods. No wheat products. The Paleo diet is also supposed to work(caveman diet). The main problem is finding the ingredients and the cost is higher. More organic foods, grass fed beef, wild meat, and other healthy stuff. Do some research, and start the shift as you can gather the goodies. It is usually a controlled search for what causes or irritates the condition, and what doesn't. You do become a regular at the health food stores. I just saved you 6 grand in medical bills! >:D Lol! Ask your doctor about it, though.

I am 69 so I kinda of accepted some joint pain. My shoulders were real bad a year ago, this yr they are great. Only difference that I can figure out is that wife has been putting turmeric in my oatmeal. I only eat the oatmeal maybe 3 times a week and didn't notice my shoulder pain instantly going away so I believe it is a accumulative affect if it is the Tumeric. I can get relief from joint pain with Ibuprofen and such but always seemed to be a bandaid, stopped pain but no fix. Hope some of this may help with your condition. Bob

Anti inflammatory drugs work but they are really hard on your stomach. Side effects from some stomach remedies can tie you to the toilet. Your body doesn't like to be messed with. The diet thing is a good idea. Glucosamine might be worth a try. Don't let anyone convince you that something is just a placebo. If it works, it works, don't worry about how.
