Pain is ONE thing.....getting to the BOTTOM of WHERE the pain originates is another.....I know....I'm in that process....it ain't fun....BUT, I refuse to listen much to the allopathic docs who just push drugs - as their solutions are sometimes worse than nothing.....I WANT to know WHY there is a PROBLEM, and get rid of THAT problem! (Right now I'm working with enzymes among other things.)

I have since heard more details on the studies that were done.

Seems the participants in this study were over the age of 70, and already had succeptibility to heart trouble.
My question is: Why were these facts left out of the original story?

I hooked up with the research hospital a little too late for the Celebrex study for people who already have cancer. Was able to get into another study for a drug that now has orphan drug status in the EU and USA for treating Kidney cancer, Bay 43-9006. It seems that a protein system goes wild in many cancers, and this drug shuts that pathway. I'm in a thyroid cancer study.

I have been taking Daypro (oxaprozine) 600mg for osteoarthritis for about 8 years now. This is in the nonsteroidal anti inflammatory family of drugs. I have not heard it mentioned in any of all this hoopla. Anyone have any information on Daypro and the long term use?

Check out this site, http://www.krysalis.net/rheumatism.htm where the use of L-Lysine to treat RA is described. Rather than say more, I recommend you read the info.
