Could someone please tell my arthritic joints to stop complaining.

Looks like it's going to be a happy fun pill night.

[KitchenWitch]

2. Okay.

Not sure if yours will listen better to me than mine do...

3. You have to MAKE them shut up; they won't respond to polite requests.

May I suggest Vicodin, with a vodka chaser?

9. I am hitting the first half of your suggestion.

Vicodin and a heating pad...

10. Heat's good. Cold followed by heat (an arthritis treatment favored in Japan) works

pretty well, too; it really does help increase the blood flow to the area.

5. KW's joints,

7. Having spend 20 minutes deciding which pain pills to purchase and pop tonight,

generic aspirin and generic acetaminophen were far less expensive than Excedrin Arthritis(tm), which is buffered aspirin + acetaminophen...

That buffered stuff is expensive, but I gather it won't burn holes into your stomach... :smoke:

8. I have a semi cure- but they still won't listen

I've been taking 2 enteric aspirins in the am and two at night. "Enteric" is the key- they don't burn out your stomach lining.

It works as good as celebrex, and its cheaper and safer. Advil is not for those that consume alcohol, but it works too. But daily use burns up your kidneys.

Stay active, avoid sitting for extended periods (which puts a damper on lounging I guess)

11. hot bath with 1/4 cup each of: baking soda, epsom salts and sea salt

soak for 20 minutes. Repeat as needed.

excellent therapy, esp when combined with anti inflammatory medicines.

Yoga has helped my joints a lot!

12. Anybody else take 'Joint Soother'?

Has glucosomine, chondroitin, and MSM. I get it at Vitamin World.
Relatively cheap in the jumbo size bottle.
I take one tab morning and evening and it sure works for me.
No more arthritic knees and fingers.

13. "JOINTS, STOP COMPLAINING!! It's MY job to complain!"

I'm popping pills too, KW.

At least I'm not Poppins, Mary.
