Is anyone here taking HA? How much and in what
form?
Well, I'm using it for my knees, and boy, am I sold
on the stuff! I get injections in both knees every six months...a
series of 3, one week apart. I have chondromalacea (sp?), which is
arthritis/roughening of the cartiledge on the backs of both kneecaps, worst
in the left knee, which makes it very painful to go up/down stairs, ride
(esp. at a walk for any legth of time), etc. I've been on this stuff
for about a year, and it makes all the difference in the world. My
knees are not killing me for 2 weeks after a 50 now, or for several days
after a 20 mi. conditioning ride (basically, till the next one LOL). I
also have a torn meniscus in the left knee...doesn't help that
much.
