I am a moderator on the Fibromyalgia forum and just posted this in that forum. This is mainly about pain (I'm sure some of you have pain, also) but there is also information about diabetes, too. This product is an alternative medication and it's helped me with both pain and diabetes. Hitam's post led me to post about this in here because curcumin (turmeric) is in this product. Hope it helps some of you.

As some of you know, I've been on a hunt for alternative pain relief since I had to stop taking ibuprofen last September due to bleeding ulcers. I tried krill oil and am still taking this. I started krill oil before I had to stop the ibuprofen and I noticed, after a couple of days, that I didn't need as much ibuprofen. So, this is something to consider. I take 1,000 mg of 100% pure Arctic krill oil.
But, I'm writing this about something else I've been using for about five weeks now. This is an alternative medication called Curamin. It's made for Terry Naturally by EuroPharma. I have absolutely no vested interest in this but I'm just letting you know what I'm taking.
How did I find out about this? I did a lot of searching and researching. I was looking for an alternative pain reliever. I came across a site and an article really piqued my interest. Here is a link to it.

I started to get excited when I read this BUT, you know me....got to check everything out...especially the doctor that wrote this. I wanted to make sure he wasn't a scammer. I googled his name and was blown away by his credentials. Here is what I saw.

Yep, this was on the up and up so I did a little more researching and found quite a bit if information about this product so I decided to bite the bullet and try it.
After taking this for one week, I was able to stop the Vicodin I was taking for pain. I still took the extra strength Tylenol, though. I also still had pain but it was finally under control again. I was so excited that I ended up inviting 14 people for Thanksgiving and that was a HUGE mistake. I bit off more than I could chew and have been in a flare from Hell. I did have to start up the Vicodin again but, as I have rested and paced myself, I'm backing off the Vicodin now. So, I'm a very happy camper. I feel confident that this will work great for me to be in control of my pain again.
There was an added bonus to this product too. I'm diabetic and shortly after starting Curamin, my blood sugar numbers came down! I mean DOWN! I was having to take one insulin injection before dinner before starting Curamin. Now I have been able to stop the insulin injection and still have better blood sugar numbers than I did when I was using the insulin! This is wonderful and I'm sharing this because there are quite a few with diabetes on this forum too.
So, this is the news flash for today. Do your own searching, speak to your doctor, and check this out. It might help you, too. There are a ton of testimonials out there on this product.
