glucosime any good?

[El64]

ive got a screwed knee and after having some exploratory surgery ive been told my cartledge is f+cked and i need a "cartledge transplant". (im being serious). the doctor told me to continue exercising as much as poss to try and keep some muscle round the knee for support while i wait for the 2nd op which could be some time .
my own doctor reccomended i take glucosomine as a supplement while the knee specialist said it was a waste of time with no proven benefits.
what do you guys think? do any of you take it and notice any improvement?
i took it myself for about 2 or 3 months at 1200mg/day and to be honest i didnt notice any difference but im not sure of the quality of the stuff i used.
any thoughts/ recomendations?

My injuries are less severe, just alot of wear and tear from Rugby and wrestling. But I find it very effective.

you have to take it religously or your wasting your time...and you wont notice anything for atleast 4 weeks
