TT,
This is the update on the Cetyl Myrestaleate you told me about.
I used the Cetyl Myrestaleate for 60 days rather than the recommended 30 days, I extended the additional 30 days based upon the recommendation of the of the Natural Health Council due to the severity of my symptoms. Two weeks into the treatment I stopped taking Keto Profin for my knees, I was taking the anti-inflammatory meds three times a day just to function on a reduced scale. Where before starting the CM if I stopped taking Anti-Inflam’s my knees would be so swollen within 24 hours that I could not bend them. It has been two months without the anti-Inflam’s and I am still not having any inflammation. While my knees still hurt, the pain is somewhat reduced, and that without taking anything for the inflammation or pain. That is itself a huge improvement.
While this is far from a cure it is sufficient improvement that I will take the CM again. I plan to let the gains stabilize and then take the CM for another 30 days to see if I can induce further improvement. The only help I had gotten from traditional medicine was a recommendation and a second opinion that my only option was knee replacement surgery.
Thank you for the assistance you have provided and I will keep you posted after the next cycle of the CM. I have recommended the CM to others even at this point because if I gain no further improvement this is still better than the knee replacement and I can live with my knees as they currently are.
