@francine6829 It was me that posted about it as an anti-inflammatory. I've tried different brands, the last being Dr. Mercola fermented turmeric, but need to just read up on this prior to starting. There are many brands out there. If you do take it, drink lots of water as it can come back in burpies. Again, read up on this prior and check with your physician to make sure that it does not interfere with anything you're being given. Also, as I mentioned earlier, some of my pain is caused by stress of pain in muscles. Stretching will help alleviate that and as I mentioned I use extra-strength blue emu cream to help. I also do mindfulness meditation which helps relax the body.
