This is worse than I thought
The hamstrings are a little better today (I don't wince every time I sit down, stand up, or touch them with anything other than clothing), but my hip joints are super achey in a way they haven't been for years. I stopped taking my glucosamine-chondroitin supplements because of the suspicious ingredients in the base. I think I might have to pony up the cash for the liquid version, though, because I'm already tired of hobbling around--I can't walk without limping and shuffling, and I can't comfortably sit in the same position for too long (more than fifteen minutes at a time). Standing isn't a lot of fun, either. I can't stand on my right leg alone without some serious pain.
Jesus Christ this body I am telling you. *sigh*
Perhaps working with Dr. Pickel will help clear up some of these inflammatory joint issues, as well. I'll try to remember to ask him about that tomorrow. My brain is not at its best right now. I got lost going to the Late Night Callers show on Friday, did I mention? Yes, seriously. I got lost getting to Westport. It was embarrassing. I was so grateful that the friend driving was a good sport about it.
I'm also grateful that I decided to start the process with Dr. Pickel when I did. It's obvious that the Armour medication's effectiveness is starting to fail. I made a visual journal entry about how listing and listening to all my symptoms was depressing. After I'd finished the entry (theraputic but not what I'd call uplifting), I realized I'd forgotten to list two or three of the problems I've been experiencing lately. Ha! Ha ha!

Have you seen the Emergen-C supplement with Gluc/chon?
The only downside to it I can see is that it's sweetened with fructose, but it can't be much.

This capsule (http://www.biosynergy.com/GCMSM.htm)seems to fit the requirements. May have to research the company a bit more.
I found a liquid, but the main ingredient is apple juice concentrate and it contains sucralose. Blech.
