Hi Sherry oouch sounds painful.

I had a look at your recent posts and did not see anything on diet.

You might like to look at the posts on this site omega threes and sixes, fish oil etc.

There are several reports suggesting increased omega threes (and by implication balancing the omega threes and sixes) may reduce arthritis. Increased omega three and balancing the omega threes and sixes may also help reduce inflammatory pressures on the body.

Please discuss supplementation with your doctor as fish oil can cause blood thinning. 2 grams of DHA a day is suggested in a trial to be the level at which uptake of DHA drops off in women. Bottled is cheapest. Be aware of the A and D content of Cod liver based oils.
