I know a guy who's around 55 or so and limps with arthritis. He claims that eating a large amount of glucose amine has helped him. He used to run and play tennis. Now he commutes to work every day on his bike. Unfortunately the disease runs in my family and I can feel it in my wrists and sometimes hip even in my twenties. I just keep pedaling. I think if you let go and give up it will only get worse. I notice sometimes it will be completely gone for months and then it comes back. I find Ibuprofen to work well and Naproxen works great. I only use that when it gets really aggravating and I have a race or long ride to do. There's nothing you can do about the march of time so you may as well smile
