Comment:
Since starting glucosamine, my knee pain is at least 50% reduced. Yesterday I walked up the stairs for the first time is 6 months. (not without some pain, but I was able to do it) I hope this is safe long-term because the last 30 days have been an enormous relief! Some diarrhea side effect, but manageable.

Comment:
I have osteoarthritis. my back is extremely painful. I could barely get up, always in pain. Started taking Glucosomine Chondroiant, the generic form, as I couldn't afford the name brands. After aprox 10 days the pain had decreased immensely.
