Do you use that sting therapy? I have read about that and have given it some thought.

One time I hit my thumb with a hammer. I stood up real fast and bumped my head real good on a shelf. My thumb stopped hurting right away.
Is that how bee stings work with arthritis?

No, it actually relieves swollen and aching joints. Can also reduce scar tissue and has shown results on some neurological disorders.

Bee venom actually contains natural cortisone.

You would think after working for 40 years you could remember things.


WOW! Sound almost exactly like my scheduling... No fun getting old...

I sometimes wonder if this is it. Always trying to do to much at one time. To much going on.

Just had # 76, but with this arthritis, it is getting dang hard to trap! The mistake we make in life is, we always seem to think it won’t happen to us!

FYA, I think beav is 80, or prolly was last year! lol

Yep, congrats Russ, that is prolly further than I wish to trod, with the war wounds aching!
