If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

Hi All, I saw my rheumy three weeks ago, and I can't take Nsaids any longer because of my blood pressure. Have tried TNF drugs, not good for me. He told me about a supplement some of his lupus patients are taking with good success. It is called Zyflamend. I read all about it and decided to give it a try. I was eating Ex-Tylenol all day before this, and now I might take 2 a day. It is made up of herbs, and works similar to cox 2 inhibitors, without the bad side effects. I can't believe how much better I am. I had applied for a disability permit two weeks ago, because my walking was so poor. Read up about it and decide for your self. I am too watch my blood pressure and stomach, and so far they are fine. I would say my blood pressure is actually lower, probably because I have less pain.

I've tried it for about 2 months and I had no success due to severe hip pain.I stopped my NSAIDs and tried zyflamend per instructions taking 2 aday.It helped for some symtoms but did nothing for my hips,which in turn I had to go back on the NSAIDs. I hope it helps for you.
Tim
