perfect. When someone says I helped them, I feel so good about myself. When
I am down, I come here to talk with my lovely friends. This is a great site
and I’ve come to love it and my friends here. Thank you for making such a
wonderful place to call home!

I walked in my room tonight, and there was a bottle of a supplement called Curamin on my bed. I guess my dad just happened to be in the health store and decided to pay $65 for a pain relief supplement that most likely wont work - but anything is worth a shot I guess. So far, I've taken one capsule and then Googled it. www.curamin.com

The website looks like a cheesy ripoff to me, but it really does have quite good reviews elsewhere. I searched it with Fibro and it looks promising. I'll continue to post on my experience; look into it.

It was very nice of your father to spend that much for a supplement. It shows he cares!

I hope it turns out to be worth the money.

hi and i agree with stacey about your name!

i went to the site you posted and it stated curcumin as the ingredient. curcumin is the active substance in turmeric and i know that dr. oz is a big proponent of turmeric for inflammation and a host of other things. i started adding it to my food but then i read that you had to eat massive amounts to get therapeutic results and that you could get that in a supplement.

so.......your dad, bless him, might be on to something. please let us know if it helps.

I have yet to take it exactly as recommended due to the holiday going on and everything. . . But considering I've been helping my boyfriend's family with a lot of parties and spending the night with friends and haven't been near as bad off as usual, even the one tablet a day I've been taking must be doing some good.
