I've read here from a couple of people they have some arthritis pain. I've just found a new prescription creme called Voltaren. Yes, it sounds like something from Harry Potter (We must destroy Lord Voltaren and the Arm Twisters!), but it has helped me tremendously. Must have Dr. prescribe.

Sam- thanks for the heads-up. I do have some arthritis so it's good to know what's available. I'll talk to my doc.

In NZ we can get Voltaren cream without GP prescription, I do believe it comes in varying strengths as does the Voltaren pills the stronger versions need GP script.

I have a problem with most NSAIDs.
I can take Ibuprofen, but any of the others give me Kidney Stones.
I'd rather have the arthritis pain.

LOL Thanks anyway. I'm sure this info will be useful to others
