Re: Re: Quick ? - Are joint pains worse at night? - to Luci

[Guest guest]

Hi Luci -

I'm sorry we have the same problem. Yes, I get that same pain in the knees

and hips at the end of the day. Knees and hips are definitely the worst!

Doesn't seem so bad early on in the day, but gets progrssively worse. I

wonder if it has to do with being more tired at the end of the day. I'm

guessing so. I dread having to go up or down stairs in the evening.

How much of your flax oil pills are you taking? I have some and have only

been taking 1 a day. I wonder if I should increase this? I've been taking

them for a while and don't notice any difference in the joint pains part of

it. Maybe I'm not taking enough to notice improvement.

Are you getting any labwork soon to check to hypo? I'm counting the days now

myself.

Thanks for the sympathy!
