Painful knees
I've started with the knee exercises and am using
ibuprofen
gel. I also ran on grass hoping it would ease things a little. Do I persevere as I am sure it's my body in shock as its the first bit of exercise I've done for nearly 30 years 😩😨

Heels, ankles, knees
As expected each week following each run I’ve been a bit achy but stretching following the run a bit of
ibuprofen
rub that evening before bed and I’m fine the next day. First week it was my calves, second week thighs. This week has been my ankles and insides of my knees.

Having copper IUD today - can't take any painkillers
My issue is although I was advised to take two paracetamol or
Ibuprofen
before the procedure, I am not able to take any of this stuff. Long story short a few years ago I got addicted to over the counter painkillers that contained codeine. These mixtures were both
Ibuprofen
and Paracetamol.

Statin muscle pain
I find if I rub
Ibuprofen
into the areas of ache it subsided. There are no other symptoms when I get this, no dizziness or breathlessness. I feel generally OK, just these aches. They do not occur due to any excessive exercise. Any advice much appreciated

What should I do now? Feeling completely lost.
When it's all happening, I'm dosed to the max on cocodamel and
ibuprofen
to help with the pain - which creates the deadly cycle of constipation, bloatedness, etc. Can anyone advise me on what I can do apart from following up at the hospital?

Methotrexate and Ibuprofen
Also he suggested I took
Ibuprofen
for pain relief and Omerprazole to prevent stomach ulcers. If
Ibuprofen
works for PMR why are we prescribed Pred. when we get PMR? I'd be grateful for any answers.

So sick of pain
I take 1000g paracetamol And 1000g
ibuprofen
, this quiets the pain for a while. I work physical, go to gym ,have dogs. So I'm not lazy. My husband is doing the shopping at the moment, I just couldn't muster the energy. I wish it would stop.

Pred, Ibuprofen, Tylenol (Paracetemol)
Ibuprofen
isn't a treatment for PMR - prednisone is that treatment. But if you need to "top off" with some Advil (
ibuprofen
) every once in a while, then why shouldn't you?

AIP diet: no more horrendous pain from endo -all gone!!!
No more diarrhea, too I haven't taken a single
ibuprofen
in 14months! I just want everyone to try this diet. It's seems very restrictive and it is. You will have to spend a lot of time cooking and preparing food. The hunger goes away after a month. It is not a carb free diet.

How to cope with pain after chemotherapy sessions
Is
Ibuprofen

Just been told i am hyper-mobile. hEDS? This might explain my chronic fatigue / post exercise malaise and more!
There doesn't seem any point telling a GP as they will usually just tell me to take
ibuprofen
and i'm almost sure they won't acknowledge EDS or even know what it is. Many thanks for your thoughts/comments on this. Terry

ahh endo symptoms without painkillers
So long story short: my GP messed up my repeat prescription of omazeprole to go with my
ibuprofen
so I couldn't pre-dose before my period. I get an upset stomach with just the
ibuprofen
so the omazeprole helps settle it. I don't need it any other time of my cycle.

First time Rheumatologist, not happy
In his opinion I should be off steroids within 4 months and just use paracetamol or
ibuprofen
Altogether not happy

Cold or what?!?!?!?!?!?
Steroids pills for 5 days 3 times , felt a bit better for 3 days , but still like I had a bad cold, then
ibuprofen
and paracetamol every 4 hours, then just paracetamol every 4 hours. Nothing worked. We are in March and I'm the same. Still coughing, nose still blocked and a general exhaustion.

Upset
I took advice and rested, iced and took
ibuprofen
for 2 weeks. Tried a short trial run in Thursday but couldn't do it. Decided to see my doctor who diagnosed a strained or sprained knee after looking and feeling for about 20 second!

Good morning, I'm your body, I can hurt you. Have a nice day.
Then symptoms showed some improvement and I decided to take two
ibuprofen
. Stayed on it every 6 hours. Today I'm better but not all better. Mom has Lupus, my father now deceased once thought he had gout.
