Yes ... be aware that Aleve was investigated a few years back for heart problems. It is sad because I found it worked well but can't take the chance and changed to tylenol (rapid release) I too use Voltaren , it helps some times .. I also use probiotics for over all health .. I think it helps . I used to have so many supplements but had to cut back because I just didn't know if they were helping or not ... some of them quite pricey.

Yes, supps are not helping if in excess. Doc will tell u most just pass. Blood tests will show if any are needed. I had same issue with pain relief. I use topical Salonpas, very good lasting help. All nsaid pain relief accumulate in the body over time and can cause multiple issues. Keep legs elevated as much as possible, compression stockings for circulation, stress management very important. Stress can take u down, take a walk, read a book, watch birds play in a lake. Do what u need to to minimize stress. Life in constant pain is disheartening, fight back and remove stress. Regards.
