Ok guys, I'll finally admit it I'm finally starting to feel my age.....but don't tell anyone outside of here as everyone I know say I at least look young for my age even though I did get a thing in the mail the other day for "seniors"...LOL. Anyway I'm going on 42 middle of Feburary, and I've had 'mild' arthritis in my neck since I was in my early 20's. When I started to really notice it several trips to a chiropractor, doing the neck exercises he told me to do to loosen the muscles, and a theraputic pillow have made the pain associated with it bearible for close to 15 years. I've finally gotten used to the neck stuff but here lately my shoulders have decided to join in the party on occasion too.
I talked to my dad earler tonight and he said he had been taking Osteo Bi-Flex for over a year and had been able to come completely off the prescription arthritis medicine he had been taking. Looking at the ingredients I see it has Glucosamine in it. I know I'm moving outside of the human element here but I used to have an older dog that I started giving a glucosamine suppliment and even she acted like she felt better after taking the stuff for several weaks.
That said given Dad's glowing recommendation, and the completely unpredudical opinion of an old dog, I'm planning to give it a try and see how it works for me. That leads me to my question for ya'll, and that is how do you guys deal with the arthritis? Beyond the suppliment and/or simply enduring the pain are there any home remedies, etc out there I should know about, just in case? I've heard the one about being bee stung working and worse comes to worse I'm willing to give that a try if need be...but I really don't want to go there except as a matter of last resort. So, any other suggestions for me to try????

Today's Featured Article - Bad Vibes - by Curtis Von Fange. One of the strangest ways to communicate with our tractor is to ask it how it feels. "Ask it how it feels," you say? Yup, ask it how it feels. Now, as with the other articles in this series one has to be able to hear what 'ole blue' is trying to say in response. The nice thing about our old iron friends is that they are usually quite consistent in their response, rather unlike some people I know who might change what they say due to the weather or other mitigating circumstances. But since t
