Same deal for me. Basketball. Arthro at 32 but retained beat up ACL. Doc said come back to get fixed.

At 48, Doc said eff off. Come back at 60 for a new knee. I guess I procrastinated.....

Took glu/chon for a long while. Absolutely awesome. Blew it off for a while, irritated it (balloon knee) and went for cortisone shots only two times in early/mid 50's. OMG - sweet.

Now taking Turmeric Curcumin at 60 and all is well but I don't move as much as a younger man.

I feel glu/chon is more robust. I could crouch like baseball catcher. Felt odd but I could do it at 50.
