Hi Gang,
Have been taking Phenocane - also called Curcumin - for a couple of days
with no apparent change in pain level. But things that work for one doesn't
always work for others. Best wishes for others suffering - I hope you get
help.
I will continue to take the Phenocane becuase it is supposed to be a
good source of Antioxidants - hopefully true.
Take care --
