the question is how much of fish oil and glucosamine you were taking? if it's 1g a day etc... it will not do a thing. Lots of people say glucosamine doesn't work. But it works for me (I have half of my knee cut out). I take 8g+ of fish oil per day and eat a fair bit of oily fish. Also I take 6g of glucosamine per day. I arrived at those figures through taking various doses over the past 10 years... since my surgery. And I can still squat and deadlift. When I stop the supps for couple of weeks, I've problem walking up stairs pain free.
yeah I'm in the Glucosamine does work some of the time. Not totally sure though now.
I thought Cortisone wasn't worth the risk due to sides later in life, unless you were a Pro Athlete or something, but whatthefuckdoIknow.
Fish oil does not help the joints, it simply blocks the inflammatory modulators of the immune system, giving the illusion of joint health improving.
I stopped taking any sort of unsaturated fat supplements a long time ago.
It depends how far along the arthritis is, after a certain point the degradation is what causes the pain, and if it's rheumatoid arthritis the joint degradation will not stop even with nutritional and/or pharmacological intervention.
It can also interfere with tissue/organ repair/regeneration if your diet is already rich in vegetable oils. Not to mention the tendency for oxidation.
Try one of these bro
Arthritis can come about from a joint injury, so he could very well be correct.

These guys claim to use stem cells derived from fat to regenerate tissue, although i am not quite certain of their claims.
Glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate, and the two i... [N Engl J Med. 2006] - PubMed - NCBI
Talks about various treatments - 1500mg glucosamin, 1200mg chondroitin sulfate (and both) daily or 200mg of celecoxib (NSAID) and a placebo, nothing was significantly better than the placebo.
I had quite a number of clients with arthritis, so i have done plenty of research on the topic!
