About a week ago we had a blog entry about old man morning pain and what the OFM has found out about it. The item we decided to try out was a pill that might help get lubrication into the body bone joints to relieve some of the morning pain. Well we have found that Glucosamine and Chondroitin pills from Walmart have knocked about 80% of the morning joint pain out of the OFM body. And loosened up his movements also.
About thirty years ago he tried it for some different pains that turned out to be tendon trouble that led to knife work by a surgeon. They did nothing for that injury. They are definitely not a cure all. But for the last five mornings the OFM has been able to get right up in the mornings and not have much at all for pain in the way of the walking. On top of that his balance is a lot better also. We are guessing that when your joints can work right, your balance will be better also.
Apparently they are like most medicines, they work on what they do and don't work on the rest of the human frailties.
We had a very nice walk today and enjoyed the nice less hot temperatures. Even the grocery store trip was a lot nicer without all the balance wobbling in time with the joint pains. We did not like that old joints song. Good night.
Well that is a dramatic difference. I know people who swear by g-c, but I've never tried it. Maybe I should!
ReplyDeleteRead about what it does before trying it. It is not for muscle pains. It took me a couple of hours to find out what it really does before I tried it again after 30+ years.
DeleteThanks for the report.
