[pct-l] Ankle Pain

[pctcoach@sopris.net (Margo Chisholm)]

My experience is much like Jeffrey's. I did have the 
ankle cleaned out and it helped a good deal. That was 
about 5 years ago, 3 years before I did my 600 mi PCT 
journey. Like, Jeffrey, the ankle is very prone to 
turning and a mild "turn" for others is a 3-day swelling 
and limping event for me. I am finding that Glucosamine 
and MSM (sulfur) are working really well. Nothing will 
make the ankle 20 years old rather than 50, but that's 
what seems to help the most.

I also use and like a homeopathic remedy (both topical 
and tablets) called Traumeel.

Sometimes we can't undo what the years have done. And it 
certainly doesn't mean we have to stop being out there!

Best of luck to the Class of 2001!

Namaste, Maggot (Margo Chisholm)
