Hi all,

I welcome discussion and advice. I have had mild dupuytrens for 15 years and mild ledderhose for about 8 years. I had RT around 2012 on my hands and have had very little progression. My nodules in my feet have progressed recently.

Now for my question, I recently was told that my knees are bone on bone for at least 4 of the 8 bones. I had avoided glucosamine because of the potential to advance or accelerate dupuytrens or ledderhose. However as I now have pain in one knee daily I am thinking of starting to take glucosamine to try and stave off knee replacement for a couple more years.

What are people experiences with glucosimne? Is there a type that has less affect on dupuyterns?

Thanks in advance,
Mike
