Cinnamon as an anti-inflammatory?

Hello,

My doctor told me to stay away from NSAIDs and put me on Tramadol for my arthritic pain. I keep reading about the anti-inflammatory properties of cinnamon. Do any of you know if cinnamon, like NSAIDs, can cause problems for us m.c. folks?

Thanks for your help.

Frank
