I got rockjoint from tangling with some mangy wolves. Went to Arcadia's to get a cure potion... and they're not cheap. Especially for a haggling novice.

So are there any alternate ways to cure one's self of diseases that are less of a monetary hit? I'm still just L7, and haven't even got any known alchemy matches yet.

Whiterun use the alter of talos

Is it near the Talos statue? I didn't poke around it too much on account of the rambling prophet...
