Currently I am starting one Glucosamine Chondroitin .daily....It is starting to work BUT on those days that the temp drops 20 degrees or more or the dew point rises above 45 % and the humidity sky rockets over nite..I wake up in so much pain I can barely walk much less move..muscles, joints.every fiber in my being.is stiff !!!
I cannot take anything stronger than asprin and Tylenol..I tried Aleeve but it hurt my stomach so terribly bad i had to quit......The stuff the doctor recommends tears my stomach apart so i quit taking it
The Question is Can I take the recommended doses of asprin or Tylenol with the Glucosamine Chondrroitin or is there a bad chemistry between the two...
Any and all Ostero Arthritis sufferers out there i would love to hear from..Thanks for your compassionate answers.... This OSTEO HURTS......

I have had osteo-arthritis for many years and seen several specialists during that time.
Tylenol and Aspirin do NOT work the same way. Aspirin is a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory drug (NSAID); it can really hurt your stomach and your kidneys.
Talk to your own doctor about it, but my doctors have said that if Tylenol does the job, take it instead of Aspirin. But be sure not to take more Tylenol than recommended.

Osteoarthritis is what they term wear and tear. Therefore as such their is no inflammation. Paracetamol should help the pain. Good Luck
