Damn WB…. I share your pain…..
I actually started paying a personal trainer to get me back in shape to move better, started drinking tart cherry juice on a regular basis and changed my diet to exclude almost all acid items (except the cherry juice). It has helped immensely. The VA had me on Flexeril and Vicodin daily for years. I had to go through almost a full year of acupuncture to get to a point where I didn’t constantly need the medications. As a suggestion that has worked for me and several other people I know, I would look at preventative (natural) and alternative medicine.
