    Christopher2 surely your not taking aback seat - that would only leave room for Christopher1 to reappear and we cant have that. image

  • Tried drinking the cider vinegar and made me sick. I have fibromyalgia  and spend my life on painkillers any suggestions? I always find the change of the seasons play the old joints up.

  • isuffer with my joints too, i might try tat vinegar drink as i do not like taking too many pills.was there anythin else.maud that sounds nasty.

    I swear too ... by Glucosamine to help with joint pain.  I bet a few of us are suffering this evening after a busy day in the garden!

    My local health food shop has been promoting Celadrin. I'm intending to do a bit of web-surfing to find out something about it. Pepper-dog and I both take Glucosamine - not sure if it helps because I swear when I turn suddenly ;- )

  • chris2 i have tried cod liver oil but it has a nasty side effect and i swear as i run back to the house and try and get me booots of. i have looked at glocosamine but it is not a cheap sulution.

    I was told by my then GP a few years back that Glucosamine only works for about 50% of people. So may be worth just trying to see if you're one of those 50% or not before you buy a supply. IME about 2 weeks use should be long enough to tell.

    Not sure if a GP would now prescribe a supply- it's not a medicine as such, just a supplement, but I do know that some GPs around here did prescribe it a few yrs ago. After all if it works for you, the saving on stronger anti-inflammatories/painkillers to the NHS would be there. Can remember thinking that by the time I got free prescriptions it wouldnt be available.... J.
