Caution:
Where can we order things like ramulus mori and caulis spatholobi? I have ankylosing spondylitis, it is an aggressive disease and I’m with my entire torso in disabling, miserable pain. I’ve been through the medicine grind for many years, I’m not improving, I’m severely worsened and worsening. I will be in a nursing home in no time if there’s not something found to assist.
All help is welcome and effective remedy is needed.
Thank you.
