I take several different anti-inflammatory supplements. I don't know if they are helping but I worry I'll get worse without them.

Hi @Katkat

How are you doing today?

Have you talk to your doctor about this? I think you can always try a few days off from the supplements to see how your body reacts. Let me tag a few other members to see if they can offer some advice as to how they incorporate supplements into their treatment.

Do you take anti-inflammatory supplements? What do you take? Were they prescribed by your doctor or did you discover they fit into your regime?

Take care,

I am in the severe range now at 74 yrs old. I have found thru trial and error and getting older with SA, I sleep on my back because I can hardly turn to my side now. I also take 10 mg Melatonin. I didn't know it came in 20 mg! (Thanks ladyslipper 67) What has really help with my back pain, when in bed, is a large memory foam wedge. The large end is under my knees and my legs go down to the small end. It doesn't move when I sleep but then again I am not turning over back and forth. This takes the pressure off my back. I hope this helps someone.
