Christine, I hear Omega-3 fatty oils found in some types of fish is very good for arthritis. You can also find it in capsule form in health food stores. No, they don't make you fat! :)

One more suggestion in your already long list of treatments for arthritis.Zostrix is a cream developed for the treatment of shingles. It was found to be effective in arthritis when one joint was involved. It is derived from the spice capsaicin

Hi Christine, I think that what I said about the methionine is that I was going to try to find a new source. I used to buy 1000 tablets for 21.95, but the company stopped bottling it in quantities that large. I haven't found anaother source yet, but I know it is sold in bulk for cattle feed! It is the most used amino acid in the body, and promotes growth and healing, thus explaining it's use by the cattle industry. It gipes me that I now have to pay 10 times as much for the same pills, when I can find them. I think that it is only a matter of time before methionine is discovered. Again! By the way, some people have shown dramatic improvement, while some have shown nothing. That is common with a lot of treatments. Del
