| Hi Richard,
My doctor told me the diabetes likely made my arthritis worse than it would have been. I'm not so sure mine is due to the diabetes because my maternal grandfather was so severly afflicted -- he had to retire from farming at age 40. My mother has OA and RA. Neither of them are/were diabetic.
I just started using a specially formulated compound called Trigger Gel. My doctor is hoping it works well enough I can come off, or at least minimize the 1000mg/day of Naproxen.
