Hi Cymro:

Yes, I realized that I was sounding extremist but I didn't hold back. For sure, NSAIDs are useful. I just which I was properly informed when they were prescribed.

On a related note, I am finding that my one week of a carnivore diet has reduced inflammation, burning, stinging and pain so that I can sleep more comfortably. I am hoping that after a month my immune system will calm more. But I don't want to be just eating bacon, eggs, steak, chicken and fish too long.
