I too know the horrible pain of bursitis. I've had it for 3 years. If you haven't already, you might want to check out the following listing on this forum. There are alot of helpful info & things NOT to do (surgery!) http://www.healthlinkusa.com/forum.fwx?start=0&thread=131853&number=1 My part of the messages starts on #10. Has anyone else tried L-glutamine yet? It has really been my life saver. I've found (& talking to others) that the quality is #1. Life Extensions sells "pharmasutical quality" (sp) lef.org . I've been taking it since Jan & as long as I don't over do, I'm able to do most things with minimal pain. I don't do well walking very long or up inclines, but I CAN WALK & go places now!! One important point is that a high dosage is the only way to help. One tablespoon of the powder 3xdaily (I don't know how mg it would be). I was told that I should beable to cut back the dosage, but for now I'm too scared to. I've posted on some other sites because after all the pain I've been in I wanted to share this with others. (I feel like it's my mission!)
