SOMEWHERE in Grey Nomads, someone told of a recipe that you rub into sore joints. Apparently, it heats up the area, and give relief. I know sorbolene cream was one of the ingredients. Does anyone remember who it was and where I can find it again, please?

Maybe someone out there can help me with this, as the doctor didn't seem too worried about it yesterday.

(Preview)
Have read back over the "horror stories" on this health & wellbing forum, and basically, all I want is a general concensus on whether to have full medical insurance, hospital cover only, or none at all.
