Hi-

I can finally say that my hip pain has improved just over the past week, I think the walking, epsom soaks, an husband's messages to the area really helped to loosen the muscles in the area. But now my costochrontis is back again. I never in my life got costochondritis until I finished radiation. Now I have been getting a flare up every couple of months that take months to go away. I'm only 40, too young for these aches and pains according to my doctors but then again too young to have had bread cancer too...... OK, I'll stop venting..

Flori- I have heard from so many that taking glucosamine/condroitin/msn has improved their knee pain, (including my physical therapist...lol) May be that's an option for you? My mom swears by it too! As far as the yoga, I think I'm done with it.

Valerie - you're brave ; I too enjoyed yoga but the pain for me is just too much

I hope your back gets better soon.

laurel- I think you are right :0)
