Subject: Vitamin B6 - very helpful for arthritis pain

Hello there,
My dad has arthritis in his hands that cause him severe pain-he would get up in the middle of the night from the pain and would have to place his hands in water to help calm it down. He hadn't slept well for a while and was prescribed a number of heavy-duty pain killers-had to take 4 different kinds a day and was quite reluctant because of their strength and the toll they might take on the liver.
My sister then gave him to try vitamin B6 and it worked wonders. He's been taking it for 3 weeks now and nothing else, claims that he can't feel the pain anymore and sleeps great. It was a complete fluke that my sister gave him this supplement, so I am assuming there might be people out there who haven't tried it themselves. I'm sure it won't work for everybody but might as well try.
