My wife had surgery again this week and she doesn't tolerate pain 
medicines well, particularly codeine-based pain medications.  Her 
doctor suggested that she try Arnicare, a natural, herb-based OTC 
product, which is marketed in natural food stores for arthritis 
relief.  So far, it has worked.

The active ingredients are:
Arnica montana
Benzolcum acidum
Byona alba
Dulcamira
Pulsatilla
Chamomila
Kali iodalum
Rhododendron chrysanthum
Rhus toxicodendum

Several of these ingredients are in herbal teas and herbal pills.

Thanks to a post from another list, I found the name of those reusable
canning jar lids that I brought up a long time ago and then could not find
the name for. They are called Tattler reusable canning jar lids.

If you google "Tattler Reusable Canning Jar Lids", you get some links,
including an Ebay store. It has a picture of them. Says they are FDA
approved. They are a rubber and a plastic lid.

Now, I'm thinking that these lids would be worth the higher price, if they
could be reused, sort of like grandma reused rubbers on the old style jars.
I'm skeptical, because I don't see them for sale anywhere but on Ebay and I
don't see a manufacturer's website. I am tempted, though....
