Experiences with

Naprosyn

I was diagnosed with RA in 2006 and later Fibromyalgia. Since then I've been on Sulfasalazine, MTX orally, Hydroxychloroquine, MTX subcutaneously, steroid injections. At the beginning of the year I was so bad I could hardly move, I was put on 4 months of Prednisone, and started on 50mg Benepali - which

For the last 2.5 years I have had pain which radiates down both my legs and feet. Have had MRI scan of the head, lumbar puncture and seen a neurologist, they all came back clear. Have completed 2 rounds of physiotherapy for the pain, also seeing a Osteopath just now and receiving acupuncture which

I take a lot of pain killers morphine tramadol naproxen and homeopathic, and they are giving me about 30% relief, I thought I would try CBD oil but there are so many out there can anybody recommend a brand. My op is middle of Nov so hopefully I will be able to stop taking everything. It is my second

Hi Recently diagnosed, started on hydrochlorquine but had to stop due to developing Tinnitus (still got it but nobody will state exactly what caused it.)

Hi, I'm a 63 year old male going on 25 (wish) who has just (3 weeks and counting) had a triple bypass. Probably started about 40 years ago when I had an 'episode' of chest pain whilst walking the kids and playing with the dogs. Got it all checked out and nothing showed up. Sent away with aspirin and

Hi all, back again looking for some advice. I am currently on holiday in Australia, just at the end of week two. I am on 600mg of sulphasalazine a day, 17.5mg of methotrexate a week, then naproxen and folic acid as required. I have only been on methotrexate for about 4 months now. On arrival in oz 2

Went on a 5 day bus trip.The minute I got back and stepped off the bus it really hit me!....All kinds of green phlegm from my lungs, more troubles breathing, headache, coughing. (The woman friend I roomed with in the hotel just told me her elderly mother has the same thing, for 3 weeks. I don't think

I’m newly diagnosed with RA. I have an appointment on Tuesday when I’m expecting to be started on Methotrexate. But this evening my shoulder is in AGONY and I’ve taken Naproxen and paracetamol. My question is, will putting something warm or cold on my shoulder help at all and if so, which please? Annnnd

Hey all! I’m new to Endometriosis as a whole... I’ve heard about it before, but never really understood what it was... until a couple of months ago, I went to my GP with ungodly menstrual cramps, and she is 99% sure I have it. I’ve always suffered from painful periods, but as I’ve got older (especially

Hi everyone. :) I am new to this, having literally signed up about 5 minutes ago. I have arthritis in my hands, spine and feet, plus a healthy dose of Fibromyalgia sprinkled on top. Lol I have Buprenorphine patches, naproxen and cocodamol for the pain. It takes the edge off, but today my feet were hurting

Has anyone had any trouble with taking naproxen??

Just back from a "today" appt at GP. I take 14 different meds for PMR, high BP, hypothyroidism, osteoarthritis. I had a AF episode 2 weeks ago and had to go to A&E. There was slight UTI too. This has not cleared with self medication on Mannose and caused 2 changes of clothes yesterday as crutches slow

Hi guys :) Can everyone tell me what they take for pain... Today is supposed to be the first day of my cycle (2nd one since last lap) and the pain is unbearable. Last month it was so bad and felt like I was having contractions (I don’t have children but did have a ‘medical termination’ after a miscarriage

Hi ladies, I was wondering if anyone had a similar experience or has any advice. I’m waiting for my second lap. Before I had my first one I would often get the sensation that I couldn’t put my foot flat on the ground before I had a severe attack of endo pain that would make me lose consciousness. Thankfully

Hi everyone I’ve just been diagnosed after a number of ruling out tests and a good 3 years of constant pain. I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid a good 15 years ago so have always had some form of pain or brain fog as well as the fatigue. Anyway after a couple years of visits to the doctors

Hi all, I came off my period on Tuesday but since yesterday I’ve had such horrendous back pain, the bottom of my back is really sore even to touch, and I have sciatic pain all the way down from the bum to my thighs. I’m on Naproxen and co-codamol but nothing is touching the pain. A hot water bottle

Does it help anyone else with the pelvic and lower back pain? I do not have a firm diagnosis of endometriosis (hence not going on suggested Visanne yet, will do more diagnostics in my home country for less), but it worked for me when naproxen and diclofenac completely failed. In case you consider it

Hi ladies Just a quickie, can you take transexamic acid with ibuprofen? I take the acid fir the heavy bleed and clots but it does not really do anything for the pain and the pain is like inflammation of the pelvis do painkillers dont really help.

I’ve just started taking naproxen for reactive arthritis (I know not RA but very similar symptoms ), I’m 37 and blimey they Knock me out an hour after taking them, but it’s still better than having hands so swollen that opening a milk bottle is agony. I’ve read that after a while you get used to the

Hi, I was diagnosed with RA 9yrs ago and over the years it is gradually affecting more of my life. I inject MTX weekly & take Folic acid. I have been using Paracetamol on a daily basis but worry about taking it so regularly. More recently I am having lots of pain/swelling in my wrists & fingers to the
