I've been feeling so significantly better for about ten days or so that I thought I'd post something about what I'm taking now as I don't believe that anything else I'm doing would explain such a significant improvement.  I find myself a little reticent to post this though because I know everyone is different and I don't want to give anyone bad information.  I'm still such a naive newbie. But the improvement is so significant and has now lasted long enough I think, that I'm feeling like I should post this.

Before I needed to take an antihistamine every 4 to 6 hours because of a feeling like I couldn't breath, etc.   These symptoms were improved by antihistamine, so I was taking a butt load of them. I've not taken one for at least four days!

It's supposed to take 6 to 12 months for Quercetin to work, so perhaps it isn't that alone.  But I do have a sense that that has helped. I've also started Vit C which probably explains some of my increased energy and reduced need for antihistamines.  (But honestly, when I tried the Vit C a year ago it made me WORSE.)  

Anyway, I'm not 100% sure that it is these new Dr. Theo pills (or not sure it is only these new pills).  I'm still on the Zantac, Singulair and Gastrocrom but I hardly need anything else.  Nothing else has changed in a way that would explain an improvement - in fact my diet has been a tad less strict and I started a demanding exercise program (P90X) last week (that I'd been working up to for four months).  

I'm taking Dr. Theo's ArthroSoft and NueroProtek plus 2000mg of buffered Vit C (that may be time released) and 2 teaspoons of magnesium.  The ArthroSoft has both the Chondroitin Sulfate and the Quercetin in the formula - that's why I'm taking it.  And the NeuroProtek is just mostly just the Quercetin with Luteloin and Rutin.  Supposedly, according to Dr. Theo, his formulas allow the Quercetin to be absorbed.  I've checked and you can take both formulas according to Dr. Theo's assistant.  You can get the order takers to give his assistant a message to call you back if you want.  She's pretty good at getting back to you quickly. On the downside both bottles are around $38 a piece.  But I honestly can't overstate how much better I've been feeling.

Here's a link in case you want to try it.

Taking 5 of the NeuroProteck and 4 of the ArthoSoft.  As I said, that is not over the amount of Quercetin allowed, but please talk to Dr. Theo's assistant.  Although she will probably refuse to tell you the exact amount of Quercetin in them as the patent is still pending or something like that.

Anyway, if you decide to try the Vit C and Dr. Theo's formulas, please let me know if it helps you.  

Sorry this post is so long - just trying to give all the info you may be curious about.  Good luck. 

Oh that's great Patricia!!  Consider the ArthoSoft with the Chondroitin Sulfate added to it.

Oh my god- where can I get my own Patricia! I'm always struck by how much research you've done about this for your husband!  It is really awesome that he has such an advocate helping him.  I hope he tells you that five times a day.

I'm curious about this Hyaloric acid -- Synthovial seven.  Idk if I need it but that's very interesting.  The aspirin-like herb is definitely out for me tho.  Thanks for the info!

Bad report here.  I've been trying Neuroprotek for three weeks.  It seemed to help at first, but now it is making me much more reactive.  I do not think this works for me.   Too bad, it seems like a good supplement.   I'm glad it's helping others.

Interesting thread. I've just ordered up some Lutimax after reading about it on this forum and doing a bit more research.  I do get some of this naturally in my diet and fromfresh sage infusions, but thought it would be worth trying to up the intake to see if their are any gains.

I've been taking magnesium for a couple of years now, it works wonders for my muscle cramps.

In addition to the above I take ketotifen, singulair, vitD and calcium and am soon to start bisphosphonates for my osteoporosis (not looking forward to them but as I have crush fractures in my spine, needs must).
