Clint, I tried the transderm patches when we went on that 4-week cruise
a few years back. I had one patch prescription for my arthritis, another
for seasickness, and a third to help me stop smoking. Toward the end of
the cruise, I couldn't move my head side to side, my back wouldn't bend
and I could barely hobble around. I finally went to the ship's doctor
and he immediately saw what was wrong.

When you use the transderm patches, you are supposed to REMOVE the old
patch before applying a fresh one. Once i'd stopped screaming from all
the hair being pulled off my neck and back as Mrs. Nonny depatched me, I
found I could flex my neck and walk again.

Being that you're a senior, I thought I should warn you about that.
