WEED!

I need two operations but they will not do them because of kidney problems. You should try weeding from a chair it greatly improves the severity of the aches to the point of torture.

Such is life I suppose.

Chronic pain is a bitch.
Maybe try working your way into it slowly Bob.
As soon as you feel like you're running out of gas, stop so you won't be sore as hell the next morning.

I'm a 63 year old guy and I have had various types of joint pain - bursitis in my shoulders, tendons in my knees, and sore feet.

I take a Glucosamine + Chondroitin nutrition supplement pill every day. It's just the generic like you buy in any drug store without prescription. Health food stores sell stuff that they claim is a lot better, and much more expensive, but I've never tried it.

The results have been dramatically positive - much better range of motion, and much less pain, in just a couple of weeks.

The scientific evidence for this is not definitive. Some doctors say that it might help, others will tell you not to waste your money.

But it will cost you $20-30 to buy a bottle and try it to see if it helps.

There may be other reasons for the pain. A very close friend (who is now in his late 50's) who is burley and strong as an ox had joint pains several years ago that were so bad he couldn't drive his truck. My late partner told him it might be gluten intolerance so he went off of gluten and in 2 weeks everything was normal. He thought she must be mistaken but 1 slice of bread brought all the pains back. Now is is a confirmed non-gluten person. I also have a gluten intolerance but it affects my stomach. Gluten issues are becoming the norm these days.

I disagree. It hurts too much to see someone in pain. Hire some strappy young man that hasn't been injuried yet.
