About Me

There Are Many Pain Control Options Today

I was in "perfect" health for most of my life. I had healthy habits and ate well. Unfortunately, one aspect of our bodies that are out of our control is our genes. Arthritis at an early age runs in my family, and when it began striking me, I was determined to keep it from interfering with my life. After my diagnosis, I began researching about all of my pain control options, and I found that after trying just a couple of natural pain control methods, I was able to stop using my OTC pain medications daily, like I had been.

I want to use my experiences and medical research to help others, so I decided to start a health blog!
