I’ve had osteoarthritis for 8 years now, it was found accidentally while trying to diagnose a back problem. It’s in my spine, hips, knees, every joint in the body. This was on top of the congenital grade 1 spondylolisthesis in my L4, L5, S1 lower back region with bone spurs. I’m on 300 mg of tramadol a day to help with the bad parts and percocet at night if it gets worse, what I’m wanting to know is how to slow the progression of these two conditions down? I go to physical therapy, I walk, I’ve lost weight, I do light stretches and weighlifting. Anything that has worked for you would be appreciated, no mean or smart ass comments ladies and gents.
