Clindamycin antibiotics has been able to reduce pain in my knees, as well as

take down fibro pain. I took 150mg every six hours when I started, then herxed

after a month, and backed down to 150mg 2x/day. - Robin

Teasel is specific for knee joints. I've upped mine recently due to increased

knee pain and it seems to be helping. I don't know 'how' it helps, if it repairs

collagen or just kills ketes; but it does seem to help with pain and stiffness

> Hiya - back in 2007 at the beginning of my illness I tried using glucosamine

to help with joint pain. All that ensued was a crunchy feeling in my joints so

I decided to stop taking it. Jump forward a couple of years and I have found

that my joint pain is becoming more like joint discomfort (uncomfortable as if

rubbing) and bone pain plus stiffens. I'm wondering whether the collagen has

been completely eaten away. Would glucosamine now be helpful or is there

another way to repair collagen damage? I'm currently building up my Cat's

Claws, Andragaphis, Reservaterol and due to start Smilax soon!
