The interchange between Tim and Dennis re: bursitis has inspired me to share my insights on this. I also was diagnosed w/bursitis of the hip and shoulder (quite miserable). I have posted a couple of times before - I have a severe candida infection which I am currently treating w/CS. To make a long story short - after all sorts of physical therapy, etc, my bursitis finally cleared up only after beginning more agressive treatment for my candida (prescription antifungals). Lo and behold, my research into candida uncovered that bursitis (or what they call pseudo-bursitis can be caused by candida infection).
Further research also uncovered a "new" theory (that the medical community for the most part doesn't know about or believe) about auto-immune conditions which cause joint pain (and possibly bursitis?), which is that some kind of mutated bacteria or possibly a "bad" bacteria in the colon could launch an auto-immune response, which can't get at the offending bacteria, but as a side effect, attacks joints or other parts of the body. I may have even read about that on this list. Another interesting insight into bursitis is that when I recently had a colonic, the therapist told me that bursitis is one of the first things that "clears up" after a colonic! So... I guess the moral to this story is that there is a lot not "known" about these conditions, and its quite possible that if a bacteria, virus, or fungus is the underlying culprit, CS could certainly be beneficial. BTW - I am still doing well on CS for my yeast infection and have even gotten lax about my other concurrent herbal supplements, etc, because I'm feeling so good! I hope this is helpful.
