'For we are mistaken when we look forward to death; the major portion of death has already passed. Whatever years be behind us are in death's hands.' Seneca

Elations day 4
Today I put more stress on my knee than the other days and found the right knee to twinge quite a bit when shifting to the standing position on my road bike. I still don't have the pain in my hands and elbows. I pushed hard on the hills to try to stir up the pain. I wasn't able to keep it up as much as I like. I think I've slowed down over the past few months. The rainy summer may have taken away more riding than I'd hoped. So I'll keep on taking the stuff but I remain skeptical. The results from the GAIT trial seem modest at best. Much better results were obtained from the dose of NSAID. Like I told Mike, it might make sense to do both but Glucosamine is expensive. Better to just take some Celebrex.
