There is a large variety of listings and suppliers for exactly the same product. If one is out, I just switch to another supplier. Bought this last batch out of the states, 4x250 pack for $72 Canadian, no delivery fees.

That is one place where Amazon is WAY cheaper than local. Did a lot of research before taking it, found no conflicts with other meds, or ailments.

I haven’t had any success with trying the Boron. Wondering if any other new users are feeling less pain?

Default PRP injections and acupuncture

My son in law has this form of arthritis in his wrist and arm. One visit to the acupuncturist here and it was a night and day experience. He says he has no pain whatsoever now. He’s a plumber so he uses his wrists on a daily basis.

I’m considering the PRP (platelet rich plasma) injections for the osteoarthritis in my knees. I’ve heard of a few really good results from this option.Just saving up some cash as it’s expensive and definitely not covered by Blue Cross. $450-$1200 per injection depending on which clinic you choose. But I need to get back to work so I need to get these old worn out knees functioning again.

Just my thoughts.

I have been taking it now for 3 weeks. Along with calcium. I have not noticed any improvement yet but will continue for a couple months and see.

If you can still adjust the order you might want to try one bottle first to see if it works for you. At 2 a day that gives you almost 2 months and by all accounts I have found, Boron helps between 70 and 80% of those that try it. Improvement is usually evident within a month, for some only a few days, but have not heard of anyone where it took two full months to show the results. It is not universally effective.

I will run the coarse for a while and they were on sale. I can always give some to the FIL.
