Anyone have any luck with curcumin?

In past years I tried various brands of Curcumin with no success. But...one of the most troubling and frightening symptoms I used to get was what felt like swelling in my brain, which was confirmed by an osteopath whom I was consulting at the time. At night because of wretched leg pain, I take Ibuprofen, but I must use the undyed kind; I take a capsule periodically throughout the night along with a spoonful of of organic whole-milk yogurt, which I keep at my bedside, so that the Ibuprofen won't upset my stomach. A couple of years ago I began mixing a teaspoonful or two of organic tumeric in with the yogurt, as tumeric needs to be combined with fat to be effective, which means that I get small doses throughout the night. It's been about two years since I began doing that and, voila, I have not had any symptoms of what I called brain swelling since then! Unfortunately, there has been no relief from the neuropathy, but hey. It's still significant.

Yes I have a hard time there is one supplement for all the different manifestations of inflammation. Often you have to treat the root cause of it which is not usually "lack of curcumin". Though it can help.

I'll have to bring that up with my LLMD. Hopefully he can make me a special curcumin IV.
