I've been taking glucostamine (?) sulphate tablets for ages - to no apparent good effect. And, being vegetarian, I'm not going to take cod liver oil. I hear - and believe - that knee supports don't do you any good.
Is it just a case of specific exercises to build stronger muscles around the knee?
If it's cartillage, there's No Way I'm going near a hospital for an operation.
Is there anything else I can try, or is it just a case of living with it???
Yours, in desperation,
