Got the jab this morning at 9. Feels a zillion times better. It is some amazing stuff, I had some shots years back in my feet for Plantar Fascitis. Definitely helped for a bit, had to have it done multiple times and then it just wouldn't work anymore. I guess you build up an immunity to it after repeated use..

That's good I've had around 7-8 mri's on my shoulders over the years. Never used to bother me,,,I got claustrophobic 2 years ago. Made it through but I was starting to panic LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member ViperGTS/Z1 Posted March 10, 2022 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted March 10, 2022 I think they can only do cortisone a certain amount of times before it actually causes joint damage..... I rely on powdered gelatin and another product to relieve joint inflammation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knock on wood, all those years of racing mx, my shoulders are mint. Knees and feet are another story. Knees are loose. I also have a neuropathy condition, non diabetic related, just seems like no cure. Gabapentin barely touches it. Getting old. Yay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rely on powdered gelatin and another product to relieve joint inflammation I had an injection in my knee three years ago. Inflammation formed a Baker cyst on the backside. One injection cleared everything up. I've had no problems with the knee since. Hopefully this will be a repeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a diminishing effect for sure. If you haven't ever tried shockwave treatments find a horse trainer or horse vet that has one a couple of people tried it and said it worked great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A combination of powdered gelatin, omega 3 fish oil, and this stuff below: glyco plus....a little pricey but often at half price......this combo has done wonders for my knees.... haven't needed a cortisone shot in over 4 years now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
