fibromyalgia

I'm taking 15mg after noon meal. I do not see improvement in swelling nor pain.

I have stenois of my spime,does this help??

Although early stages of arthritis, the medication has completely relieved any and all discomfort. Using 15mg daily for one month with no complications.

hip and leg pain

I loved this medication for my sore aching knees!!!!! I have none of the side effects..however.... I do have several of the things mentioned under "who should NOT take this drug"... I wonder if MY doctor was on drugs when he prescribed it!!!!

I am struggling with a wrist injury and have changed from 600-800mg of Ibuprofen every four to six hours to Meloxicam. One pill makes the pain somewhat tollerable, two pills upset my stomach at first.

I have Fibromyalgia and this med helps somewhat with my all over pain. Although it do not get rid of the pain, it does relieve about 30 percent. I call that helpful.

I have been bothered by pain in knees and thumbs for a few yrs. As a 62 yr. old carpenter it made working pretty difficult at times. After taking the first pill the pain decreased by at least 90%. I was prescribed 1 15mg dose daily ,but found that if I only take one when needed, usually only every 2nd or 3rd day, I feel like a I did when I was 50. Back to my 40 hour week.

After just one pill I experienced severe swelling of legs and ankles. I stopped it immediately but two weeks later I am still experiencing the swelling and discomfort so a little less severe than initially. I thank God I had sufficient medical knowledge to discontinue it after one pill. I hate to think what the results would have been if I had continued it for a few days.

It did not stop the swelling of my hands and fingers. It also caused my stomach to hurt.

I, too felt like I had pressure in my head and neck after taking Meloxicam. I was afraid I was having a stroke. The pain relief was only about 75% plus it made me nautious so for me the risks outweighed the benefits.

Had L & R total knee replacements. Have arthritis, plantar fashia & GERD. Still have to take an OTC supplamental pain med. on reg. basis to help relieve the pain.

Caused stool to turn green. Decreased swelling in legs but with any kind of exertion inflammation comes right back.Gives stomach upset as well as cramps.

use to use aleve, doctor worried aqbout stomach ulcers, switched me to this. Only 3 days into it but so far no help with pain relief. Really hoping that it starts to work soon.

I had bursitis/arthritis in hip with swelling behind my knees. Walking was a chore. This medication has immensely relieved all conditions. Wonderful!

since starting this medication I have been experiencing flu-like symptoms..headache and nausea. I am not sure I can persevere to see if the side affects wear off.

I felt better within one day and don't need cane any longer. I did have stomach pains for a few days.....but not after that. I take it in the evening, sleep so much better and walk almost normal again. So glad my doc prescribed this medication and hope it keeps the pain under control until I have surgery and no longer need it!
