Wonder how this would work on Plantar Fasciitis? I’ve been suffering with that for about 5 years, and the Voltaren I’m taking for it increases the risk of heart attack.

If this eases the pain and doesn’t cause any risks, it could be just the ticket. Any Freepers out there take it?

I use Voltaren topical gel from time to time for plantar fasciitis but I’m not so sure it works all that well. I still have it but not too badly at the moment. I avoid oral NSAIDS b/c I have microscopic colitis and oral NSAIDS are a no-no.

Yes, I have been taking it since the beginning of September and can attest to its effectiveness. It has completely cleared up my sinusitis and removed all pain from a prior rotator cuff injury’s residual pain and soreness as well as an elbow pain. Surprisingly, it lowered my relatively high blood pressure making it so that I don’t need my BP medicine (Toprol & lisinopril). Lastly, I just plain feel more energetic. I take between 4 - 6 pills a day. I’m completely sold.
