I have not posted the state of affairs here for a while because there's been no need. This group runs itself. There's no need for moderation or management of any sort.
In this day and age I find that amazing. We've accumulated a bit of money because some people are generously contributing and some are passing the word but I haven't distributed any since we did so the last time. There doesn't really seem to be a whole lot of income and so I've let it ride. I'm always open to suggestions but I still think that probably in spite of their flaws the Rebel News is one of the most deserving when we decide to distribute but there are so many others.
I personally contribute to some that I think are worthy and I trust that the rest of you do the same.
At any rate I'd like to thank you all for being here and being such interesting and polite people. I'd like to see more people contribute URLs but I suppose at some point this site could get to be too much to read.
Just thought I'd say thanks.
So, a couple of days ago my wife strained her back from working out a little too intensely (going for a personal best deadlift). She was in pain and couldn’t sleep or get comfortable, as anyone who has dealt with a sore back knows.
Normally she would have grabbed the Advil/Tylenol and maybe the Rebaxacol?, but I convinced her to let me apply some DMSO (75% concentration) on her sore back. She was very skeptical but I have had pretty great results using it on a severely sprained ankle and on a deep deep laceration on my hand.
Within in 15 minutes of application, her pain subsided dramatically and she was able to move freely without tending up.
The next day she woke up sore and stiff again so I applied the DMSO again. It worked to dramatically reduce the pain again.
That evening the pain slowly reappeared and she didn’t want to reapply the DMSO as it is kind of smelly and it irritates the skin somewhat, so I gave her 1ml of liquid CBD oil (Frank CBD 100mg/g). Her pain was pretty much ...
