Dear Donna,
Just read your posting and wanted
to make a comment. I am starting
to believe more and more that the joint pain is due
to menopausal or pre-. specially that I hear from several the same symptoms when pregnant. This might have to do with the water collecting around the joint and salt saturation. I would say to at least reduce your salt intake. I am going to the Rheumatologist for my joint pain today to make sure no other illnesses.
I can't help you with the progestron take.
