frustrated with gp re pain meds.
Ever since I had my stroke in 2018, I’ve not been allowed
nsaids
, due to the increased risk of further strokes. My then gp prescribed butec patches, which in the 5.5yrs have only been increased twice to the current 15mcg. I was given Tramadol for breakthrough pain which I don’t take too often.

Grounding/Earthing
I am going through some medical issues that normally I would take
NSAIDs
for, but because of the wisdom of this group I am not. So I looked for what else can bring down inflammation -- and grounding/earthing does that and more. I have been amazed at what it has done for my heart.

Variable Asthma and pain medication.
Due to the Asthma I am unable to use any
NSAIDs
. I am relying on paracetamol and a low dose of tramadol( dose being low due to alerts to other medications I am taking). I have exercises and hot/ cold treatments to help ease the pain. None of which has helped at all.

finally a diagnosis
Gp would give me
nsaids
. The last few year I couldn’t stand the pain throughout my body. Legs and hip’s especially painful. I have had several falls within the last six months. Two year ago I was referred to a rheumatologist. He diagnosed fibromyalgia.

Went from stage 3b to stage 2
I tweaked my diet, made sure I was hydrated, stayed away from
NSAIDS
, only took stomach meds as needed, and started walking for exercise. I had another physical yesterday and today my results were posted to my portal. My gfr is now 60 …no protein in urine!! I am now back at stage 2!

I’m new to this forum
Declined to start DMARDs at that point as a bit scared of side effects and have managed with
NSAIDs
until last year. Was admitted to hospital last June and was taken off naproxen and put on etoricoxib because of evidence of past stroke on scan. Last year was a roller coaster.

Abnormal liver function tests
I dont drink, im not on
NSAIDs
, I dont have any other symptoms, no pain, not diabetic, no itchiness but I have been taking 40mg fluoxetine a day. They found a small cyst in the pancreas which im waiting for another scan. Has anyone had anything similar by taking fluoxetine?

NSAIDS
do not help and I am taking glucosamine and chondroitin, and calcium and D3. Any suggestions for anything else I can do to help alleviate some of this pain? Many thanks!

Never ending problems
I shouldn't take
NSAIDS
. I read that I shouldn't have potassium but on the other hand bananas help with high blood pressure. I shouldn't eat processed bread but, as anyone gluten free knows, gf bread contains loads of rubbish and I have no alternative available.

Suggestions for questions for gastroenterologist?
Good evening all. Hope you’re as well as can be. Following 4 - 5 months of nausea, epigastric pain, chest pain and palpitations etc I recently underwent an endoscopy. The consultant’s initial report stated ‘diffuse erosive gastritis’ and ‘generalised ulcerated mucosa’. I have some photos and have to

Motrin
I know usually
NSAIDs
are not good for us. My kidney dr never told me I could not take it, but now I’m nervous. I have stage 3, just wondering if what you’ve heard from your physician about taking Motrin after surgery for pain?

ibuprofen, naproxen and diclofenac.

Understanding the source of my pain.
This is another reason she wants me to start
NSAIDs
. She says if I have enthesitis they will work and I don't need the prednisone. But I really don't think I have enthesitis. Thank you again to everyone here who has and continues to help me.

Help, need guidance, major setback
Barely slept for a month, was taking high dose
nsaids
and tylenol for pain and fever. Had 7 days of sulfa antibiotic. Barely ate, lost 10 lbs. Blood tests still indicate I am fighting an infection and have macrocytic anemia.
