Well it didn't do anything for the pain and has made me feel awful. | M | 25 | 1 days | 7/28/2007 | 1 | Shoulder pain, then back pain | Hives | I cannot take this medication. The first time I took it, for shoulder pain, it did nothing for the pain and caused me to itch. The second time I took it, for back pain, again it did nothing for the pain and I broke out in hives. From what I've read, inflammation doesn't really happen, it's just something the doctors are blaiming pain on when they don't know what causes it, especially chronic pain. | M | 26 | 2 months | 10/13/2005 | 1 | Knee swelling from injury and arthritis | Horrible stomach cramps diarrhea muscle cramps.

Can't stand up room spinning, Laying down just makes him sick. Sick both ends. | Would have thought Doctor could have warned side effects could be bad considering the amount of people on this site alone, yes you read the leaflet but then all tablets carry side effects. Makes it worse that he just finished 2 weeks leave with his new company and now has to go sick. DO-NOT TOUCH THIS TABLET. | M | 54 | 2 days 500 2X day | 9/4/2017 | 1 | Hamstring pain | Vertigo, lightheaded, anxiety, and depression. | Horrible drug, a poison. I would rather deal with the hamstring pain any day. Been off it for 2 weeks and praying the side effects lift. | M | 40 | 6 days 500 mg x 2 | 5/12/2017 | 1 | Pain in shoulder | I took just one tablet - never again. 24 hours later I am still feeling dizzy. felt disorientated, had to walk round without moving my head as it was so bad. Had to sleep with light on as there were migraine like flashes in my eyes. It did work on the pain, but not worth the horrid feeling. had to sleep during the day too. Slowed my thinking. | M | 75 | 1 days 500mg 1X day | 2/15/2024 | 1 | Muscle pain in lower back | Extreme anxiety. Tinnitus very bad. It has raised my blood pressure even now 9 days after ceasing the medication I felt all of these while on the medication but only after day 5 made the connection. I have missed 5 days of work because of the light-headedness and horrible Tinnitus. I will never touch this again. I took this some years ago and had the same symptoms but it was only this time round that I made the connection between this med and my symptoms. This med has caused me trips to a and e , two nights in hospital and doctors visits. Still not right 10 days on. Can't believe I was stupid enough to take it without reading about side effects. Hope they go away soon because my life is he'll at the moment.its like a waking nightmare. My symptoms headache,light-headedness,numbness in left hand,high BP, elevated heart rate. Pounding tinnitus. | Might work for some people but I would suffer with a leg hanging off than take one more of these. | M | 54 | 5 days 500 2X day | 5/12/2022 |
