[QUOTE="Chook, post: 2089324, member: 24561"] Thank you for your concern and very thoughtful reply. Basically I haven't got a clue why my joints are hurting so much at the moment. Maybe it's just the 'inevitable wear and tear' as the doctor described it - I did have an extremely active life before the arthritis kicked in so the doctor is probably right. I do take a Vit D3 supplement on the advice of a doctor (when I was working constant nights) and just never stopped taking it. No, I don't take Vit K. I don't normally burn. Up until I started the Vit D3 I would go red then slowly turn brown, since taking the D3 I just go brown. I actually was told to sunbathe by a Dermatologist I saw for my psoriasis. The strange thing was the sunburn I had last week didn't hurt and it took almost a week for the peeling to start. Same with Mr C. As for diet - nothing has really changed - I'm just keeping carbs low as possible and not replacing them with anything. Because of the arthritis I'm very sedentary so cutting back further on carbs isn't making me lose weight, just keeping me steady. I'm really insulin resistant and I'm still struggling to get my BGs to a level I'm happy with. I really don't want to go back in the insulin jabs so I don't have a problem with virtually cutting carbs out. [/QUOTE]
