That's quite interesting Dale.

But wasn't Voltaren or Celebrex discontinued here in Canada because of the serious side effects...heart problems or something? I will check it out. My mom was on it and had to stop because of that.

I'm always amazed at how differently drugs affect people. They help some and do harm with others, depending on how their systems absorb the chemicals. Sort of like how poison ivy doesn't affect some people.

Thanks for sharing that. It will do a great deal of good for many of us. Is it by prescription only down there in the States? I didn't know it came in cream form.
