    Have you tried any type of glucosamine/chondroitin products? The docs say it doesn't work, but I can't live without it for my rotator cuff tear. I use Phoenix Nutritionals version, Joint flow.

    I don't get this, but many many MANY of my patients do.

    Several of them have told me that Tiger Balm helps.

    I always know when the weather is gonna change, because the air has a clean and spicy scent....

    What part of my head do I rub the Tiger Balm to make my barometric change migraines go away?

    Scuba diving makes me claustrophobic

    I put on so much Absorbine Jr. that it filled my Crocs. That and two aspirin seem to have helped. Either that or a front went through.

    I have experienced pain when weather changed, as it tends to do in Michigan. The weather here is a very fickle troublesome sort. But I know why I have pain in those spots, so that helps at least.

    +1...though I had this in WI, too. It's the midwest and our insane fronts.

    My knees can predict cold fronts (ever since puberty). But I will say that being active has made a huge difference. Running and biking have made things much more bearable. And "vitamin I."
