Painfull Joints
Painfull Joints Hi Everyone
Just wondering if anyone can help,
Taking Tamoxifen (been on them for 12 months) I have been suffering with aching knees for some time just wondered if anyone has taken Glucosamine Sulphate? If so, do they work and is it o.k to take while on Tamoxifen.
Thanks
Janet S
painful joints Hi Janet
I swear by Glucosamine. Have been taking it for year and as I am now also taking Arimidex, joint pains have been a problem. But as long as I take the tablets regularly, there is a vast improvement. I take a combination with MSM and Chondroitin and Vit. C in it, as my rheumatologist suggested this and it is great. You can get these mail order from healthydirect.co.uk. As far as I was told you can take these freely with both Tamoxifen and Arimidex.
Good luck.

Janet S it has certainly helped my OA. Some swear by Gl+Chondroitin which didn’t help me at all. Try Gl Sul and see how you go- read that recommended dose for starters is 1500 per day and it’s cheaper to buy online. Good lick , dilly
