celebrex

Avatar f tn sorry to jump in, but i had the impression that Celebrex was going to be taken out of the market for several reasons. It is not sold in South America because of that, since people were complaining about these symptoms you metion (upset stomach, etc) and one of them was "bouncing pain". Amy, did they put you straight on Celebrex, or did you try other mild over the counter painkillers? i suffer from both AS and MS, and i take higher doses of Advil or any other Iboprufen around.
Avatar n tn She is 64 but she also has osteoporosis and arthritis in her lower back. The back doctor just prescribed Celebrex, is this the safest drug for her? Also what should people with Hep C do to better care for their liver eventhough so far she seems to have a healthy liver. For the osteoporosis she is on Fosamax. She has been on it for several years. I am just afraid that too many potent drugs can be harmful for her liver.
548642 tn?1266179652 I take Celebrex and was in fact put on it by the h ead honcho at Shands at the university of Florida. I have RA and the mainstay drug for an RA flare is Prednisone. Since steroids are a big no no on treatment, Shands recommended that I go on Celebrex when I started this round of tx. I have Stage 3/4 liver damage. They must feel the benefits far outweigh the risks in my case.
Avatar m tn Ime really worried about taking these etoricoxib even tho i was assured by the receptionist that they are not in the same family as celebrex and meloxicam..I really do believe that the celbrex caused you to have the bowel obstructions as with me it caused me to lose the lining of my stomach and also a huge flare up of ulcerative colitis which as soon as my own doctor the visited me i was rushed in and he told me i should never even of been given them..Anyway just be careful what you take.
Avatar m tn Dear Doctor. Some days after start using Celebrex I noted a loss of vision in the central area of the vision in one eye. I cant read a letter that I was looking at, but I can see the letters in both sides of the letter I was looking. If I look with that eye to a white wall I can see a yellow circle sorrounding another smaller white circle.
Avatar f tn I have been prescibed Celebrex for osteoarthris pain. Can it be taken every day for long term management of arthritis.
Avatar n tn When I was in Mexico I had an encounter with a stripper in which she rubber her bare genitals on mine. I do not believe there was any penetration. Since then I seem to have a burning sensation that builds up until I urinate. It doesn't get worse as I urinate - if anything it temporarily feels better. I basically feel as I need to go to the bathroom all the time. Also I had flu like symptoms 5 days after the encounter. Nausea, diarrea. I was sick twice and had diarrea most of the day.
Avatar f tn I went to a doctor who did a brain MRI and found 2 white spots in the frontal lobe and two in the back ..in the white matter. Also went to the emergency room and my white blood count was sky high. My gait was neaver the same neither was my health..it all went south..
Avatar f tn I am in mexico and my doctor is great... I had ivf icsi the clinic is well established. The person mhv is talking about is me.......
Avatar f tn They say my liver can take it, (stage 2 fibrosis). But I am afraid of the NSAIDs in celebrex, any one else taking it? Oh, I am on Methadone too. I am having my first liver biopsy in the morning, so I will find out more about my liver. I am scared to death about it coz I have had so many problems lately.
Avatar f tn No, it would be unheard of for Celebrex to damage your heart valve. Celebrex and similar drugs do cause high blood pressure in many individuals, though. You might have gone forever and not known about the heart valve if you had not gotten high blood pressure from the Celebrex. Follow whatever advice the cardiologist gave you, and don't worry.
Avatar f tn I take celebrex and it seems to give me some relief.Because its an anti-inflammatory med, it could help a lot with swollen areas. Sometimes it's tough to tell when you are several different meds - which one helps the most? I've never had a bad reaction to celebrex and it's easier on the stomach than ones like naproxen - which caused an ulcer in lower esophogous. Hope and pray it gives you relief.
9263335 tn?1403463032 Why be scared of racing ur child in Mexico i guess is bc all the things u see in the news but trust me when ur out there its no the same thing
Avatar f tn This might not be a potential case for lawsuit. These are the known side effects of celebrex, which may be more pronounced in some individuals. Though celebrex carries the risk of gastritis and GI ulceration, like other NSAIDS; the incidence is slightly lower as compared to others. Symptom of GI reflux can be aggravated by it. Rhythm abnormalities (early de-polarisation/ re-polarisation) may not be related to celebrex use.
Avatar n tn I never had high blood sugar but recently after a 10 day course of celebrex for an inflamed shoulder muscle my fasting blood sugar shot up to 137. I read that celebrex has this side effect. Is it reversible?
Avatar f tn ve been off of Skelaxin since March 2010. I went off of Celebrex first as I read an article that was in a New Zealand journal of medicine that said it causes rare (9/300 people) visual disturbance. I stayed on Neurontin and then a month later got another aura. So, then I asked my doc if I could get off of Neurontin and I tapered down from 900/day to 500/day so far. I got another aura but it was about a month later.
Avatar n tn I AM 34 YEARS OLD HAVE TWO CHILDREN IN MEXICO I NEED TO FIND A TREATMENT CENTER IN MEXICO BECAUSE THERE IS NOWAY TO BRING MY FAMILY BACK TO THE UNITED STATES IF ANY HELP PLEASE HELP
Avatar f tn My boyfriend, who is an American citizen, spends a large amount of time in Mexico with family. During this last visit, he became sick and went to the doctor to get checked out. After running the tests, they found that he has tuberculosis. Unfortunately, he and his family don't have the money to pursue treatment for him there in Mexico, and we both know that they won't let him back across the border with active TB. What on earth is he to do?

1667344 tn?1303311751 Can I take two celebrex pills? They are 200mg. I still have some aches and it has been all ready about 4 hours ago I took 200mg.
Avatar m tn re trying to achieve in my lumbar. So... is the Celebrex/Ultracet combination really something to worry about? Thanks!
Avatar f tn I have been taking Celebrex (200 mg a day) for about five years for bone on bone knee osteoarthritis. It has worked well for controlling my pain (not perfect but pretty good). I also get some lower back pain (combination of osteoarthritis and nerve stuff) that only happens when I over-do (like trying to garden, etc.). I typically need a day or two of Vicodin for that as the Celebrex does not seem to work for that.
443898 tn?1229700080 I have had leg weakness so bad that my legs have felt as if they would buckle under me. In addition to these symptoms, I have had profuse itching to my extremities that is not relieved with hydrocortisone cream or benadryl. I am an RN and have really studied these symptoms, and I feel as if there is something else besides RA lurking around. Im wondering if these symptoms are indicative or RA or if the symptoms suggest a neurological problem?
Avatar m tn Meloxicam is just a glorified Ibuprofen/Aleve med, so you could always try those OTC. You can take up to 800 mg Ibuprofen every 8 hours or 500mg of Aleve twice a day in it's place. Celebrex is a name brand drug and insurance companies hate those namebrands. lol Your doc can sometimes do a prior authorization, though, to get them to pay for it, which is basically paperwork explaining that you' ve tried other things and this is the only drug that works for you.
Avatar f tn Regular doc says I need to take celebrex for arthritis pain. I know it is a NSAID so I am scared of it. He thinks it is not a problem with hep c, but he is not a Hep C doc. What is the scoop on it? Any one taking it with Hep C?
Avatar n tn Hi Again Joy, Just another thought or actually a question. Celebrex, proxen and joflam I beleive are all antiinflammatories. Celebrex is a very potent one in fact. You weren't taking these at the same time were you? All of these can be very hard on your stomach lining and can increase gastrointestinal pain. You said you were sure it was not heart burn and indeed it may not be. But as Mollyrae suggested it could be, or at least be part of your problem.
Avatar m tn I started taking Celebrex two months ago and have gained 18 lbs since. I am wondering if anyone has gained weight on Celebrex? I have a sprained lumbar, lumbago syndrome with back spasms. I can't take narcotic pain meds. Any alternative to Celebrex? Naproxen does nothing for my pain.
