    Voltaren

    Worked well for my back issue (spondy) and arthritic hands/knees.  Mile elevation gain on the return?--That's why I like to go up a mountain, get the hard part over first lol!! I would love to do the Havasu Falls hike someday--have you done that one? 

    Havasu Falls

    I have not.  The planning looks pretty daunting.  I go up hill much better than I go down, maybe that's why I like the Canyon.  I am probably the slowest hiker on the trail going down, but that situation often reverses when I go back up.  Who knows why?

    Gabapentin

    I had radiating leg pain, since I have been taking this, it’s really worked.  Worth looking into.

    I will ask

    I will ask my doctor about it.  Does it have any interactions with alcohol?  Red wine is part of my supplement regimine.

    Interesting

    Interesting, I have a bunch of Vitamin C that I do not take because of pill overload.  I will give it a try.  I do take fish oil and MSM already.  I certainly could add to the MSM dosage.  Everything is worth a try.  Thank you one and all.

    iv

    IV vitamin C is the big gun for steroid displacement.  Even saturation with oral C at the laxative point, say 20+ grams per day, is relatively slight, more for maintenance after the IV with other anti-inflammatory supplements.     My sisteer-in-law can take oral any combination including prednisone, and it is the IV C that she wants
