Walk, walk, walk. It does help arthiritis. Also, Iceland Health Joint Relief Formula helps me. It has the long chain omega 3s so if you are supplementing with Omega 3 (fish oil) you can cut back. It has has all the traditional joint supplements (glucosamine sulfate, Collagen, Chrondronilin, and Hydralonic Acid. You are supposed to take 2 per day but I start out the first week with 4 to get the concentration up. Then I take 3 per day the second week then the recommended amount. It really helps and I can keep running because of this product. As far as Omega 3 it has 330mg EPA and 220mg of DHA per 2 tablets.
Yoga is also supposed to be beneficial too. I would give these things a shot and see if they do anything to help before considering surgery.
