I’ve been taking celecoxib for over 6 months now. When I stopped it at the age of 35 my pain disappeared completely. It was like the sun was out of my sight.
I’m not sure if I’m over it, but I’ve heard that celecoxib has an edge. It’s a painkiller that can actually help the body by decreasing inflammation and easing pain. It’s also known to reduce swelling. So, why do I take it?
I had arthritis in the spine. It was almost like I was on a roller coaster.
After about a year of taking celecoxib I was back to my usual high.
I was back to normal after six months. I’m still in pain, but it’s not like it’s been pounding my back like it used to. I’ve taken the drug twice in the past year. I’m not sure if I’ve been on it long enough for it to be a good idea or a bad one.
I had no pain relief for 6 months, so I have been back on Celebrex. I’m still a little on the high side, but I have been back on it. I’ve had more pain in the last year than I had in the past.
There’s no difference in pain. I’m just having a bad day, not really experiencing any of the symptoms. I take it every day, I’m fine.
I don’t know if it’s due to my arthritis, but I know it is. It’s like I’m on a roller coaster.
I take the medicine every day, and when I’m feeling bad, I take the pills a little more often.
I don’t know why.
I take it every day, and when I’m feeling bad, I take the pills a little more often.
