Just FYI,
Since I began making my own CS a couple months ago, my 62 year old mother
has been consuming 4-6 tablespoons of it daily. She has suffered from
rheumatoid arthritis (among many other things) for the past 15 years or so...
and just had reconstructive surgery on one of her hands due to the incredible
crippling that the arthritis caused. She has been on every medication that her
MD (I call him the 'quack') could think of (against my advice) and has never
found anything that did much for her pain. Often times she would be in so much
pain that she literally could not stand up from a chair if she'd been sitting
for a while. The drug cocktail that she is on has greatly weakened her immune
system and it took quite a bit of coaxing, but I finally persuaded her to at
least give CS a try. I am very pleased to say that while she still has an
occasional "bad day," for the most part she is suffering FAR less from the pain
associated with her arthritis.&nb! sp; Her pain levels have not been this low
in several years. I certainly cannot speak on all of the mechanisms at play
here, but the CS is the only change she has made. It also completely cleared
up a skin infection in four days (topically - with soaked cotton balls) that
she has had between her toes for 2 years -- that none of the prescription med's
the doc gave her even touched.
FWIW,

Try a mix of CS/DMSO (50/50) topically on the remaining pain. It works
wonders for my husband.
