I am on chemo therapy along with 2 herniated disks and arthritis, I have been on medication for 5 1/2 months it is scary to rely on these in such away. To be able to work and have a productive life feel rather sad and nervous of addiction how will I come off these?

I think it is some kind of arthritis. When I put Tiger Balm cream on the knuckle area it does give me relief until it gets washed off. The pain is awful. The cortisone shot was in the arm – took about one week to kick in and didn’t last very long. Do not want to start down that road. Is there anything like oral meds that anyone recommends that really give relief. Thanks.

i had an operation last year for meniscus repair and now i have new kind of pain in the knee.
doctors have 2 opinions: 1) lubricating the knee by using injections (Suplasin injections)
2) doing an operation for polishing the cartilage of the patella.
i am looking for the best medicine/injections to avoid doing another knee operation.
