Very interesting, thanks for posting!

I wonder if it's just helpful in osteo, not inflammatory types.

Hi only 49

Thanks for pointing this out and I've read the article. It's interesting and I wish they would use me as a guinea pig!!! I don't seem to have any other option but to have another TKR - it takes a good few years for this type of research to trickle down to other regions. I'll certainly ask when I see my consultant again.
