Tracey is right....my knees are just as bad as they were before surgery...I've lost 50 lbs now....doc said they may have to adjust to the weight loss before they get better. I have to keep moving though..otherwise I will really be in trouble. I have osteoarthritis so may never be pain free but sure would like to see things improve by summer. Hope you find some relief as you go through your journey. A535 helps sometimes ....while cold helps other times!!

Tylenol Arthritis is my go to. After 145 lb loss my knees are better but still the damage i did with being over weight is still there. Also i am 62 so osteo arthritis is present due to age and abuse.

Since you are still young I am sure they will be. Tylenol arthritis was okayed by TWH

Hi

I feel your pain. I also have 200+ to go. I don't have surgery until January.

I have a tensor that fits a little gel ice pack in it, I works pretty good. I also use Voltaren.
