Doctor always ask you to list all the medications and over the counter stuff you are using. At the time my knees were KILLING ME. Ortho Doc was chomping at the bit he wanted to do knee replacements so bad, I'd already had a few of those cortisone shots. I was trying EVERYTHING, those rub on pain things and finally tried Blue Emu. Apparently its good for golfers, AND YOU WON'T STINK!
Well I got a little jar of that at Walmart and man $$$$. Who knows if it was working, the placebo is a powerful drug.
Ran out and it was hurting again. Sent the wife to get some when she went to town and apparently all they had was the BIG jar. Same price.
I was at the dermatologist soon, filling out the "what drugs you take" list and they ask me what is Blue Emu. I explained to her and asked her if it really has anything in it that really helped. They all looked it up in their resources and started laughing. It didn't seem to work near as good for me after that.
Just an FYI, it DOES HAVE LIDOCANE in it "DOCTOR".
