    Hi. Yes for over three years I tried all sorts of remedies including Turmeric, MSM, Glucosamine and Chrondotrin. I followed an arthritis specific diet which was almost Paleo. I had a thermogenic diet with lots of heat like ginger and cayenne pepper. I swam four times a week and exercised to try and build up muscle around the joint. 

    In short i was prepared to try anything to give me a better quality of life for my knee pain and to avoid for as long as possible a knee replacement.

    in the end bone on bone arthritis won the war (in both knees) nothing I did helped.

    I have had 2 medial partial knee replacements in the last eleven months. I do still take the supplements and follow a clean sugar free diet to hopefully help with arthritic flair ups.

    I am not sure any of them actually helped in the end but fear factor kept me taking them.

    Good luck with your knee journey.

    Tried virtually everything over a lot of years remedies knee braces but same outcome as Tricia had to have the knee replaced in the end but a good thing for me as I am arthritis free and can do the things I couldn't do before the op

    I wish you all the good luck in the world and hope your knee recovers naturally.
