Another bad start to the year

Hi @arpie - Curcumin is the refined and stronger version of turmeric- have a friend with a pinched nerve taking it with great success. Statins were fine for a few months and then noticed problems but only temporary once off them back to normal quickly.Iunderstand from a friend who had same they can vary type of statin to mitigate problems but too spooked the first time plus enough other health stuff happening.For arthritic pain think you can take Krill Oil during treatment but check first with your doctor please.There is a great site recommended by BCNA which details pluses and minuses of all types of supplements which I find useful - come out of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Centre in NYC which is a hospital specialising in all types on cancer research and treatment.Is easy to understand for non medical me but site needs a bit of time to understand how to navigate. Here it is :

All the best xo
