I have paradoxical reactions to medications. Maybe you are having one to this,too? I know a "natural" help for many ppl with pain is Coral Calcium. But when I tried it, the pain in my joints went "through the roof." I also had terrible reactions to the L tryptophan that helped many.

Don't be afraid to call him. Even the drug companies say that their meds only help 30% of the ppl who try them.
