Stiffness Remedy

I just got off the phone w a man in his early 50s. He called to ask me if I ever came across someone who went the holistic route and also found that medication made things worse. And if so, if there is a holistic stiffness remedy that might help.

He feels his symptoms (namely stiffness) gets worse by the day. He believes the medication makes it worse. Yet, he says he can only manage 8-9 hours without medication.

I don’t have this experience so I thought I would ask you.

Thanks for your questions about the possible side effects of medications and a stiffness remedy. As for whether his challenges are due at least in part to medications he takes the answer would be maybe. You do not report the actual medication ins the question. If you did here is what I would do:

I would do a quick search on the internet with the name of his medications and the words “side effects”. Check to see if stiffness is listed.

If the answer is yes. this is a discussion he can have with his doctor. If the answer is no what is the deal here?

I suggest he talk with his doctor about a magnesium supplement to address his stiffness remedy. That might well be a simple solution to a troubling problem. Posted below is an interview with Carol Dean, an international expert on magnesium. Most people are have a significant deficiency.
