Common Questions and Answers about Arthrotec and alcohol
arthrotec
The lower part of my arms swell and are very painful. It hurts just to move my arms. I have like a burning and stinging in my legs and my knees hurt very bad. My hips hurt when I lay on either side. Went to doctor and done blood work and was checked for rheumatoid arthritis. Everything come back o.k. My back hurts when I stand very long. Only relief I have is when I apply heat to the different areas. Not depressed, but I want to sleep a lot. What is going on here?
I cannot sleep longer than for 2 hours. I was given Tramadol and Arthrotec for the pain. I now take Arthrotec and paracetamol after suffering a vomiting fit. I am tired of waiting to receive an appointment to see the hospital neurosurgeon to whom I was referred. I was told to get an ambulance back to hospital immediately if I became incontinent or numb in that area. What does '...
You need to get checked by a doctor, whether you do it with a PCP, through the ER or a clinic. Tylenol and alcohol just don't mix and it's easy to damage your liver with just overdoing it a little with both. And taking more Tylenol will not do anything for your pain.
What about going back to the clinic? If the Arthrotec didn't agree with you, I'm sure they could give you something else. There's lots of things to try. But self-medicating is never a good idea.
I work for an Ortho Surgeon who specializes in knee and hip replacements and also sees a lot of patients with severe arthritis, he does use Mobic alot but also uses the Arthrotec. Find a good dr. and get some definitive answers then proceed from there as far as what medications will help you. Keep us posted and welcome to the forum.
i am on very high doses of morphine, oramorph, tramadol, dihydrocodeine, baclofen, arthrotec & some paracetamol for a bad back. I also have osteoporosis & take calcium tablets for this too. This has gone on for 5 years since i fell off the back of my old works truck. Oh & 2 lots of pills for high blood pressure.
Thank you so much. It's great to be able to talk to somebody about this who's been there. Plus I have no support from my family. They know nothing about this. I've always been known as the strong one. The great mother, sister, aunt,etc. But to me this is a great weakness that I'm so ashamed of.
I am a registered nurse who has been experiencing pain just below my rib cage right side through to my back for almost 12 weeks the pain was coming and going for a while then got more sever and constant worse with movement. No injury or strain brought this on it is worse at night and in the morning it is preventing me from sleeping and wakes me. If I get into a comfortable position I am ok for a bit but movement and sneezing can make it unbearable.
nothing helps this pain feel better,it is worse when I sit, it is constant, and burning in my left butt cheek, and down my thigh, and when walking it changes to the side of my left knee, and calf, and back of my thigh..the only time that I am pain free is lying down. I am so sick of this, and my DR i now thinking it could be my hip. Who knows, all I know is that I am so sick of being in pain. Oh, I also have a lot of spasms in my feet, especially at the beach.
I was on Arthrotec and Mefenamic (at different times) and both really did a number on my stomach. Now I'm on iv morphine. From what I can remember also, when I took Codeine a long time ago, I would also get a lot of stomach pain or chest pain and get really hot in the face. Weird it don't happen with morphine.
I guess my post wasn't much help. Sorry. But just check about the aspirin.
So of you have say 2 drinks in an hour, your blood alcohol and your breast milk will have 0.08% alcohol. This amount is almost the same that is found in normal juice (yes there is naturally very very trace amounts in all juice). As long as you aren't drinking heavily and nursing at the same time, you are fine to have a drink every now and then without worrying about harming your baby.
I wont go into "random" testing. Alcohol is a toxin so your Liver stops all other functions (and there are dozens of them) to detoxify your Blood. Its the liver that removes Met. So detoxing the alcohol can cause the Met to build up in your system.
You dont say how much Met you take. To be a problem you would have to drink for a Looooooong time as in alcoholic behavior where so the liver never has a chance to go back to its other functions.
m about to ask is not something I partake in on any kind of regular basis, we just think we are back in college and proceed to act and drink like fools. This trip is usually 5 days and consists of getting up at noon going to the pool and starting with the beer before we eat (extremely stupid I now realize) and basically drink beer all day and most of the night and pretty much only eating dinner.
