And there is such danger of stomach problems with taking too much aspirin.

My friend who is an arthritic patient called me up yeaterday and told
that her joint pain has reduced considerably .Last time when I saw her
she was down with pain , can't even walk properly . I asked her whether
the exercise which I suggested her helped her out , but she told that
apart from the exercise she takes Aspirin medicine .This drug gave her
much pain relief ..


Aspirin for arthritis is no surprise. It and steroids were all they
had for inflammatory arthritis before gold was tried.
I am glad your friend gets some relief from it and she joins many
people that just take aspirin. What is really sad is that much of the
pain and loss of function people like your friend have could be much less
if she were treated with today's medicine. But,,,,, there is an old
country saying that just covers what is being said here..... You can lead
a horse to water,,, but you can not make it drink.
