<html> <DIV> Lately my tuning hand is feeling some pain, especially in the 3rd & 4th knucke joint. I've had this before and it usually dissapates within a few days of the onset. Not sure of the cause, and since i'm only in my early 40's, I'm hoping it's not arthritis. But I was wondering if anyone has ever tried ''glucosamine and/or chondroitin ", and experienced pain relief. I may have to even resort to cortisone shots, but in the meantime, I'll drink green tea, and cut back to just 3 tunings per day. Oh, I also hear fish oil is helpful. What are your most effective hand pain remedies? </DIV> Terry Peterson Precision Piano Service Torrance, CA <hr>Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at <a href="http://explorer.msn.com">http://explorer.msn.com</a> </html>
