In Bed Four Months With Rheumatism says Health Returned When He Overcame Kidney Trouble. You may have suffered for years with kidney and stomach troubles, back-ache or rheumatism, and may be almost ready to despair of ever feeling well again. That was exactly the condition of Mr. B. C. Baxter, Etna Road, Route 6, Huntington, Ind. He writes: “I had kidney trouble for 10 years, and rheumatism so bad for the past 5 months that I spent 4 months in bed. My kidneys pained me dreadfully, and were so weak that I had to get up several times st night. I had rheumatic pains in my feet, knees, hands and shoulders, and I suffered intensely. My joints were stiff and swollen, and I couldn’t get my shoes on. I was taken out of town for treatment but got no real benefit. Friends told me about Viuna and I decided to try it. I have taken only one and a half bottles, and already I feel wonderfully improved. I am almost free of the awful rheumatic pains, and the swelling and stiffness in my joints have nearly disappeared, f am sleeping fine and not bothered with night-rising any more. I am gaining weight and strength every day, and hope to go back to work soon. Life surely looks different to me since I got my health back, and I’m mighty thankful for such a wonderful medicine as Viuna,” Viuna acts promptly on sluggish bowels, lazy liver and weak kidneys.
