Margaret, if you have a trapped nerve go to an oesteopath, I did and after about three sessions the pain just vanished, it was like a miracle brenda |

Sand Dancer I bought my magnetic bracelet on EBay for about £2.00, it doesnt do any harm and I think it may do good, but I take so many other things that I really dont know brenda |

I typed a long message which apparently has not got through. I am a four week sufferer with arthritis, and am feeling very low as I am bored to tears, standing around as sitting is so uncomfortable. How do long term sufferers from back and hip problems cope as they must get terribly depressed? |

I really have suffered from Arthritis in the past.I have it in my knees,hips ankles and finger joints.After a very painful week last summer,I invested in a magnetic bracelet.Within half an hour of putting it on The pain in my arm went.I now have little discomfort unless I forget to put the bracelet on again if I have bathed.I did leave it off for most of last week and the pain in my fingers was bad again. Do try a bracelet,they are not cheap , but I think they are worth every penny Good Luck -Rose |

Brian, perhaps my bracelet isnt strong enough, I have just two magnets - didnt know there were different strengths. thanks for the info, I shall get into Boots tomorrow and see if I can get one I take GlucoS 750g twice a day, the doc said that it would not take effect for a month and gave me pain killers in the meantime, I have cod liver oil capsules, do they do the same job as Omega3? You seem to be coping very well. I live in a village and its usually a two minute walk uphill to get to the village shop, takes me about three times that now, and I dont go out nearly as much as I did Unless I hear otherwise I shall get the new bracelet and see what happens good luck brenda |

Hi Brian, have just got back from the shops - long bus trip. Tried Boots for bracelet, but none in stock. The health food shop had one but it didnt look much different from the one I have - £2.00 from EBay., Will keep going with the glocS, Cod Liver Oil and bracelet. Why do the docs always give you pain killers, it doesnt cure the problem, and I am sure they cant be good for you in large numbers. Thank you for all your help in this brenda |
