You sound like you are in a world of hurt. My sympathy. I hope you can find some medication or course of action that will help. And please don't say "don't get mad at me", I don't think anyone is going to get mad about you venting your pain.
If you have arthritis, I think glucosamine is worth a try, and also chondroidin, although there is conflicting data on both and they are a bit pricey.
Something that a lot of people don't know about, and may help with arthritis, are the carotenoids beta-cryptoxanthin and zeaxanthin. I wouldn't get supplements, personally, and I would suspect they are toxic at some level, but I eat a lot of foods (like red bell peppers) with high levels of both. If nothing else, they will definitely help lower your risk of macular degeneration.
