Also, I take SAM-e, it has some joint helping characteristics and some positive mood effects. I've noted I'm rather sensitive to SAM-e and take 1/3 the dose, no need of being too perky, people take advantage.
I'm not big on vitamins, but I do take an iron supplement very occasionally, same for potassium.
And LOL, Prilosec. Just one a day, and if I miss it, I know by that evening I've made a mistake. I have a sis with Barrett's and I was headed there rapidly and the Prilosec fixed it virtually immediately.
This is more iffy, but I am FIRMLY convinced I'm one of the people that Prilosec has also fixed their hinky gall bladder. I was having the occasional 'attack', invariably triggered by something greasy in the evening (hello Village Inn has browns!) and while I'm careful to not press my luck beyond 2PM, I've not had a lick of gall bladder trouble in years. Sis didn't start the Prilosec in time to see if she would have been similarly lucky, but I'm almost unique in the family now as I approach 60 and still have my gall bladder.
As for a chronic sinus infection . . . .
Fuck.
If the glucosamine chondriton and SAM-e are working for you great. I will just say that there is conflicting info on their efficacy.
There has been some recent caution/warning info released about PPI's, especially with long term use. FYI
Me, daily - old fart multi vitamin, CA, D3 and fish oil. As needed - H2 blocker and NSAID.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
