Hi, @kneeper, thanks for sharing your encouragement and experiences.
I dropped the diclofenac this morning, with my PA’s ready blessing; he said it’s only for comfort. I was thinking an anti-inflammatory should be also helpful reducing excess tissue swelling, potential for scar, etc. But I guess that isn’t clear, and as soon as I get my own Addison’s cortisol/steroids caught up, it’s not excessive.
Anyway, doing fine, and very glad my PT suggested going back on a stocking for the swollen knee, that actually feels good; the compression part of RICE, helps a lot!
And I use NAC, will get back on turmeric and fish oil after check-up in 2 days.
Walking around I can tell the progress.
With regards,
