Thanks for the responses. It's somewhat comforting to hear that I am not the only one... My wife tried to tell me it was diet related and that eating "anti-inflammatory" foods would solve the problem. Not that simple...
My current worry is that everything I do is taking more life out of my joints. OTC pain meds still help, so that's where I am right now. The orthopedic doctor prescribed Celebrex, but my insurance refused to pay for it (and it was not cheap).

Your wife may be on to something. Have you tried turmeric? Turmeric has been shown to help reduce inflammation and improve joint health. The problem is that turmeric is not absorbed well unless the supplement is enhanced in some way. Look for turmeric that uses hydro-soluble technology to help it absorb better.
