[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 179308, member: 3907"] My husband has osteo-arthritis, in both knees, one shoulder and his thumbs. The things that have worked well for him are: - cortisone shots and physiotherapy exercises for the shoulder - chiropractic treatment for the thumbs (I have the same treatment for repetitive-strain injuries to the thumbs and it works like a treat!) - arthroscopic surgery for one knee, and physiotherapy exercises for both knees - significant weight loss. This is the biggest factor for husband. He has been on a medically supervised diet for the past several months (and on the Glycemic Index program before that) He has lost about 185 lbs in total so far, which has made a huge difference in his mobility and a corresponding decrease in his joint pain. Hope this helps. Glad to hear that you're getting in to see your GP soon. Trinity [/QUOTE]
