Don't give up because it takes time to have an effect when there's little to
build on. My mother has a hard time swallowing the rather large pills but
COSTCO has a liquid form that works for her. I was having problems with my
hands but since using the G & C I have much of the strength back.
Not only are the replacement parts hard to find but they're expensive. Not
much OEM stuff out there and there is a waiting list.
