Celecoxib for Spondyloarthritis Reviews
Celebrex (celecoxib) "I relied on Celebrex for 5 years for inflammation relief. Took 200mg daily sometimes 400mg. Naturally, it’s important to protect your stomach lining. Cimetidine did this job fine. Right now I’m on a break from Celebrex. My rheumatologist is seeing lots of petechiae due to chronic use. Even at 100mg a day. It does thin the blood. After 7 days of stopping the petechiae has faded dramatically there is no new bruising on my body anywhere at all. Something I’ve become used to seeing. I don’t have a crushing headache every day, a side effect worth the joint pain relief. But, I’m in pain without it. I’m taking 1-5mg of prednisone for now. Keeps me awake but it’s nice to see my arms and hands look normal. Petechiae is strange. It’s red. Usually, one medium spot with a whole bunch of little spots sprinkled around it. They take forever to go away and come back quickly. Makes me look OLD. I still recommend this drug as needed but maybe not every day."
"I got Spondyloarthritis and I'm always in pain just put on celebrex I just wanted to ask if anybody on here who takes it do the have really bad shortness of breath and chest pain when it flares up its my breathing is horrible feel like suffocating"
"Works well with gabapentin to control Si joint arthritis inflammation and pain"
