Not a mouse gun post but it may be helpful. Something to try for arthritis pain is Tumeric and Ginger pills/gummies. My wife has severe Rheumatoid Arthritis, and she does take a lot of prescription medication, but she also found the gummies from Be Happy Be You helped. She has tried other brands but these are the most effective for her. She found them on one of our trips to TJ Maxx/Home Goods/Marshalls. Now she orders a few bottles at a time from their website.
