I feel your pain. I have osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It is very painful doning the equipment not to mention carrying them. But once I hit that water and I'm down there it's all worth it.
My new perfume (in case you want to try it) "Icy Hot"

I just got some Nutritional Supplements called dub Nutrition, it is supposed to have some anti inflammatory attributes to it. Has anyone heard of them, if you have what do you think? So far it has helped out in everyday but i havent been diving since i started taking them. Just wondering what others think!!!

Fish oil and Glucosamine taken regularly can really help depending how bad your joints are. I have destroyed the cartillage in my hip from a crash and these two supplements have helped alot over the years...and exercise of course. Hope that helps...
