We had a discussion on glucosamine & chondroitin several months back. My
wife and I had been taking it (Costco brand) for a year or so and saw our joint pains eliminated. You stated that it was a placebo effect and that studies show the stuff is useless. After reading more studies I thought maybe you were right...........so we stopped taking it 2 or 3 weeks ago. Guess what? My joint pains are back, most especially in my knees. I asked my wife this morning if she noticed anything different and she also noticed joint pains where there were none before while taking the G&C. Maybe the stuff does not work for some folks but it definitely works for us. I am heading out to Costco this morning to buy a bottle of the stuff. After taking it for a month or so I will report back to let you know if the joint pains went away again. |

I wouldn't take much stock in any medical advice you might be given in here...especially if the 'good doctor' moonlights as a 'sheriff'! |

BTW, have you made your contribution to the CBF to get a tree planted in your name? By now Harry should have received his card from them. Just imagine, a big, old oak in your name.

JohnH was one of the few invited out on Harry's boat, but got fussy & decided the Parker wasn't worth his time. You'd think he'd be more appreciative. |
