Anyone know about Glucosamine Chondrotin
I am almost ashamed to post this minor question with some of the other issues some are dealing with right now but I will anyway as I learn more from this forum then both my oncologists.
I started taking Glucosamine Chondrotin this week for severe joint pain due to arimidex. I have to tell you, day three and my joint pain is much better. Maybe it is all in my head but my joints felt better today and I haven't had much relief for some time. So then I ask myself, if it works so well, why don't I hear much about others using it? Maybe it interferes with how the arimidex works. I don't know! My oncologists both "don't think" it should be a problem.
Anyone out there wise on this supplement?
