[QUOTE="Rach79, post: 77093, member: 12270"] My best friend has arthritus and as far as I understand it isn't in any way related to diabetes. Her mum had it though which made me think it was possibly hereditary but in your case it doesn't appear so. Hers is a rather severe case of arthritus and she is on chemo but she is finding certain physio exercises, going to the gym and her chemo and anti-inflammatories are helping her. She also takes milk thistle as the medication can affect her kidneys and this is known to be a kidney purifier. However I'm not sure what medicine you are on and you should discuss any changes with your GP not rely on my advice alone as everyone is different. Also to aid your arthritus there could be certain foods which could help or hinder it. Also moderate daily exercise is known to help arthritus sufferers also. I know from the advice my friend was given by her GP that swimming is very beneficial. Be sure to check it all with your GP though - hope this helps :-) [/QUOTE]
