What helps you?

Dear everyone out there with OA. Blooming awful isn't?!

I've been sitting with my laptop for an hour or so (naughty me, must get moving!) and have been looking through a number of articles and am in danger of becoming quite gloomy.

How about we have a discussion about what helps us? Food, supplements, alternative medicine etc etc etc etc?

Are you up for this?! Positive stuff only for 2019.......

    I recently tried a supplement called Green lipped mussel. Took them for almost 3 months and they were really helping. Unfortunately I started getting side effects so had to stop. I am currently taking turmeric but not sure if they are helping. Also taking hemp seed oil capsules.

    I am hoping that when the weather warms up my aches will ease.

    Oh and I also had a few sessions with an osteopath which wasn't much help.

    Am currently trying to lose weight to see if it helps.
