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. JEAN

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
