Some of you know that I have osteoarthritis stabilized by knee exercises and Glucosamine and Controntin for the last eight years while a few of my peers had knee replacement during this time.
Last November I went to Hanoi Bay and did quite a bit of climbing that aggravated the pain in my right knee and started the pain in the left. Still I persisted with my medication and knee exercises. It gave relief of up to 70%. One of my favourite fruits is pineapple.
I realize that for weeks since my trip to Hanoi I have not eaten any pineapple. I really missed that so went out to purchase one. Walloped one big piece heartily. Lo and behold, next morning when I started my exercises, the pain was nearly gone. There was around 95% of relief.
Thinking it was the benefit of the exercises I increased the momentum another 5 to 10 minutes. Later in the day I began to think how could the pain decrease so much overnight.....
