| If you have arthritis you could try glucosamine and chondroitin with MSM and collagen. These are food supplements, not really herbs. Also Omega 3 oils, such as flaxseed oil (I use cod liver oil, which also supplies vitamins D and A). Do you take a calcium supplement, and have you ever consulted a competent chiropractor? You may be beyond that, but it might be worth checking with one before submitting to surgery. Feverfew is supposed to be good for migraines, but it can permanently change how some of the muscles work, so do some research before trying it. Other areas to explore are acupuncture and homeopathy. There may be some useful herbal preparations you could use as salves to help deaden the pain as well. With what you are already taking, that would probably be the best avenue for you to go regarding herbs. If you are willing to share the cause of your condition, it might suggest other possibilities to others on this board. |
