I wanted to put in my 2 cents on DMSO also. I have a problem with my shoulder and neck. Not really sure if it is arthritis or soft tissue, I think it may be a problem in both. I have been taking herbs to help arthritis and it takes care of about most of the pain most of the time. Sometimes it just gets aggravated by too much/not enough exercise and there is more pain.
I have read many DMSO stories here (and on the web), and had used a very small amount (a few drops) with a topical spray (Painstop). It did not do much for me, maybe nothing more than the Painstop itself. Yesterday I decided to mix 50/50 with CS (a couple of dropersful of both) and apply with a clean cotton pad. WOW, the bottle heated up as soon as it mixed. I dabbed it on gently after my bath (Garlic smell but I don't care!) and got dressed. To make a long story short, I forgot to take my arthritis herbs last night; I slept well without pain, and got up this morning without pain! Fantastic! I repeated the procedure today after my bath. My only question now is: Do I continue to do this every day, or just when the pain returns? I make and use CS on a regular basis, so I am not afraid of it, but not sure about DMSO.
