look on the bright side! My brother has a lot of knee problems and is living in the UK and his doctor said try cumin with pepper capsules. He said they worked a lot better then the pills he was popping before. That and in the worst case, how about a new knee!! A track buddy got one and now he switched from automatic Carrera to a manual Cayman GT4, because he could shift again!

MH, thanks for your thoughts!!!!!!!....I'll try and find those cumin & pepper caps..............The Doc I saw today mentioned a knee replacement down the road..........that's a road I don't want to travel........................................

Actually the knee replacement, anymore , is a cure all for many. I know an 80+ year old lady with both knees done and I can barely keep up with her. Don't look at replacement as horrible , because often when the pain is caused from bone on bone and cartilage breakdown a new one can alleviate the pain. Think of folks who have new hips and are zipping around now, a replacement might be the answer and even a good one.

Bill, I know....I've heard good things and also not so good things about knee replacemrnts..........maybe that's the way to go..........I just want to walk again without a cane or walker........when I'm in the Boss it doesn't matter..............maybe I'll just live in the Boss....................

Bob , I had a total knee replacement 2 years ago and haven't looked back. After 35 years of landscaping, construction, roofing, flooring and anything else you could think of to wear out my knees, I had to get a new one! I limped around for 8 years bone on bone . ( very painful ) The worst part is doing the rehab and physio but it is worth it !!! I do 10-12 thousand steps a day now , no problem.

Second & third the total knee replacement choice. My paddock queen had her left knee done (after 2nd opinion). The steroid shots were of no relief and a couple times the drainage procedure was short lived. The replacement has made her life normal again but, yes, the pain for 2 weeks after and then the PT for a month did pay out.

A very good friend of mine, Not Bill this time, had both knees replaced after age 75. His only regret......waiting.
