I agree. I have osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, a hyper-reaction to inflammation, and lung issues.
I started turmeric slowly - 300mg once a day, then twice a day. At the suggestion of my pain management doc, I have upped it to 300 mg three times a day. I take the version that is curcumin (the active ingredient in turmeric) plus peperin which enhances its effectiveness.
This is in addition to duloxetine 60 mg at bedtime, plus exercise, stretching, relaxation exercises and weekly PT (he does manual manipulation and myofascial release.) All of this helps me keep going most days - today I was able to garden for 6 hours with breaks. Tomorrow - who knows?
