ibuprofen

Avatar f tn I have symptoms that mimic MS and RA to Lupus....all test for RA and Lupus are negitive...I have already had an eye bleed...I have been to a neuro doctor but he did not perform any test he just did a look at my walk and stuff...Doctors do not know much about Riegers Anomally and are learning stuff all the time so I keep up by digging around myself..
Avatar f tn I know they are common with Lupus and for me it could just be the around the clock ibuprofen that is keeping them at bay. By any chance are you on any hormone replacements or the pill? They can cause migraines in some people. I do find that I suffer from confusion, bad memory, and can no longer handle being in busy or loud places. I seem to be much more sensitive to outside stimuli. I have had a couple of situations where my mouth felt numb and I was almost slurring my words.
Avatar n tn Thanks. I don't work and my husband was unemployed for 2 yrs. and we went thru our 401k and maxed credit cards. Now that he has a job we probably won't qualify, but I will definitely check out this possibility. I feel guilty considering we now have an income, but on the edge of bankruptcy... Who isn't now? Thanks for the info!
Avatar f tn ) It all started out of the blue, I woke up one day with joint pain EVERYWHERE! Within a couple days after many hot baths, heating blankets and ibuprofen, I saw my family doctor. This was when that swine flu was going around so I was concerned I was coming down sick as the pain felt much like those pesky body aches you get when you have a cold or the flu, but worse. I had a bunch of bloodwork which all came back normal.

Avatar f tn Ibuprofen, if you perform your due diligence and search the web, can cause abnormal bruising. Other medications can cause this as well, in addition to alcohol consumption. Ibuprofen is a "non steroidal anti-inflammatory" - that classification of medications, although many over the counter, can sometimes create problems for some people for a variety of reasons.
Avatar f tn Hi, I was recently in the last 2 weeks diagnosed positive for herpes type 1 by culture and negative serologically, which I assume means it was a recent infection. The first week of the outbreak was hell. I had all the classic symptoms, terrible sores, very painful urination, fevers, swollen glands, etc. The second week was a better week with still having some sores, but not as painful and the urination was much better.

Avatar m tn I was taking Ibuprofen for my joint pains and my leg swell up and went red. Doc said that Ibuprofen can cause oedema (fluid retention). I would see the doctor about the rash on your leg, as this could be an infection or an allergic reaction to one of you meds. When taking Ibuprofen, take that with food, or the doctor may have prescribed you with a stomach medication to take. Ibuprofen can cause damage to the stomach.
Avatar n tn In my case it is basal artery insufficiency from basal migraines and Lupus. My ANAs were borderline negative for Lupus for 8 years and for that time I just had your symptoms, then my ANAs raised higher and higher and I had inflammation of several organs. The doctors still fight over the Lupus diagnosis even though I have 9 out of 11 criteria for the disease (you only need 4 to qualify).
1057395 tn?1254367428 I have been diagnosed with low range of motion in all my joints like 2 years ago and now they hurt really bad all the time and below my elbows and knees i get a tingly feeling a couple times a day. I find myself taking a lot of ibuprofen and/or naproxen. Also my face starts to hurt suddenly sometimes only on the right side and it's my cheek forehead and eyes but i don't have a tooth or ear infection. Another thing is I have bad anxiety and shake from it sometimes.
483733 tn?1326798446 I take ibuprofen around the clock for my Lupus. In 3.5 hours I soaked 3 super plus tampons and a maxi. I'll keep an eye on it and trying to stay off my feet. I am feeling weak and dizzy.
Avatar f tn Hi I have a massive period ache , therefore I took 1100 mg of ibuprofen . At first I had taken 500 mg tablet but it's been an hour and a half and it did not help , so I took an other tablet of ibuprofen of 600 mg . The pain is gone but I feel very tired , can I be harmed or die out of it ? Should I ask for help ? Or has anybody been familiar with it ? Please help me , I am a hypochondriac person and I also have OCD and use Prozac .
Avatar f tn I took tylenol this morning. I took Ibuprofen an hour ago . I coudnnt take it anymore. It was a one time thing and i feel so much better. Will my baby be okay?
Avatar m tn whenever i take even one 550mg (naproxen) ibuprofen and then drink, my stomach gets tender and bloated and i feel bad. i usually take a maalox or something like that, yet i never throw up from it so i don't know if that's applicable for you. i think it is due to the ibuprofen, but if you're not used to eating spicy foods then it could have disagreed with you, not necessarily meaning food poisoning. you should never drink and take NSAIDs at the same time.
3122657 tn?1357432602 Ibuprofen is bad for our livers. Try getting a massage if you can. Bromelian, a natural supplement made from pineapples helps reduce swelling but it takes time to work. Also, make sure you're drinking lots of water, and getting some exercise. Try some yoga too. Pot brownies worked the best for my back pain.
Avatar f tn I have a infected broke off wisdom tooth during my last pregnancy my face swelled up and I was out of Tylenol so I took a 800 mg ibuprofen. Bad call for me but I was in pain and it was only once and everything turned out fine with baby so I was lucky.

Avatar f tn Can Ibuprofen cause dizziness, ear pain, stuffiness, and feelings of passing out if taken several times a week?
7758733 tn?1402589420 Killer headaches, and never any Tylenol around. Ibuprofen can't be that bad huh? Got to go to work and this headache must go.
Avatar f tn / I take a warm bath and just relax. Try drinking some water and lying on your left side. You can take reg tylonel . that's about it .

7381903 tn?1391464888 Ibuprofen is never allowed.. Tylenol is only option and now that im in third trimester the pharmacy told me that doctors dont even want us taking that.
