still have pain. I have been taking meloxicam (antiinflamitory) and tylenol , some times about ready to scream, pain can be pretty intense some times. They fixed my tennis elbow so they where scraping my bone and cleaning cartlidge. So you can understand alittle of it.
My daughter offered me a darvecet I told her no! Any suggestions?
I have severe scoliosis, deteriorating disks and bone spurs in my neck. With Darvocet being withdrawn from the market, my doctor put me on Tramadol, 2 x day. Today is my first day on the new meds, I feel rather out of sorts but not too bad yet. Can't tell yet whether it's helping pain or not, since I always hurt. Has anyone else switched to Tramadol? With the Darvocet dose I've been on, can I expect severe withdrawal symptoms? Thanks for your input.
I got x-rays and was diagnosed with degenerative arthritis in my big toe joint and on 9-18-13 I started taking Meloxicam (Mobic). The 1st two nights of taking Meloxicam I felt achey at night and had a fever of about 100- 101. That went away for a while, but then started happening again now every night from about 10-1-13 to now 10-11-13. I get a slight fever at night (100-101) and sweat bad all night long. Bad enough to where the sheets are wet. I usually lose about 3 - 3 1/2 lbs.
I have had both 800mg IB. And 800mg Meloxicam and one thing I know being on numerious medications for the past 10 years due to bad car accidents, is that your body will build a tolerance to all medications I'm no Dr but my best advice is to consult your Dr about alternating between both so that way your body doesn't build a high tolerance and they stop working altogether.
Has anyone heard of Meloxicam helping with w/d from opiates, such lortabs? I went to the doctor for some issues that I had been having and decided to reach out to my doctor for help getting off these bad boys. He perscribed Meloxicam to help with some the withdrawal symptons. I have to say this stuff, which is just an anit inflammatory will helps with the symptons. It eleminates the hot, flush feeling which is most annoying. It really does help.
I have gained a considerable amount of weight will taking Meloxicam. Once I stop taking will the weight come off??
I thought it was the start of some horrible disease until I thought to look up the side effects of meloxicam. I quit meloxicam and started feeling better after a couple of days (it take a few days to get out of your system because it has a relatively long half-life). After about 2 weeks I'm pretty much back to normal. I hope y'all eventually recovered as well - that was scary!
Hello Flowr,
I understand your hesitancy to take Meloxicam. Meloxicam is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with analgesic and fever reducer effects. It's often used in Arthritic and inflammatory conditions. However any NSAID comes with concerns - including OTC NSAIDs such as Ibuprofen.
Several years ago Glucosamine & Chondroitin was popular with medical providers. It was hailed as the new and one of the best "treatments" for restoring cartilage and reducing pain.
What is the danger or addiction potential problem with using Darvocet for pain relieve? And is getting off these things going to create bad WD's?? Any advice on this and some solutions for a plan? I have been on Vic's and Perc's before and got off those before, am I looking at the same WD's with these? I take 5-6 per day, please advice; thank YOU!!
He did an ultrasound and found my overy is about 3 times normal size. He gave me a prescription for darvocet. He said it was safe to take durring pregnancy but all the info I found said otherwise. Has anyone ever taken it? I'm only 5 weeks and don't want to take anything that may cause birth defects.
First off it is better to just get off without going to another opiate or drug.. But if you have the darvocet already, and you are going to try this no matter what anyway I will try and help..
Look at it this way.. Darvocet is a lower strength narcotic pain killer than hydrocodone. So if you were addicted to hydro and were not able to taper using it to lessen the effects of the withdrawl, then basically you can use the Darvocet to use to taper off of.. You said you have 22 of them right?
Her knees have been swollen ever since and she has arthritis in the left one. It is now almost January (7 months ) later and we are still dealing with this with NO answers. She is on Meloxicam daily to manage the pain. She will have a good two or three weeks then a bad few days then the cycle repeats itself.
She had strep throat Nov 16 which she took all the medicine and the symptoms went away.
m already a member of the Anxiety and Depression forums. After two months, almost, of tests and seeing various doctors and specialist, I've been diagnosed with Osteo Arthritis in the lower back and right hip. For this I've been prescribed Meloxicam/Mobic for the pain and inflamation. The data sheet that came with the prescription details some pretty nasty potential side effects. I normally don't have too much trouble with meds but this stuff is potent.
It has helped me immensely, and I would recommend it to anyone in a similar situation. Your NOT losing your mind. You will be okay. Set your mind to get off the Darvocet, and when you do...you will feel like a huge weight has been lifted off your back. You will be amazed how powerful your mind can be...
Good luck to you, and if you need to chat PM me anytime.
