Mark,
thanks for bringing that up. My PCP rarely hears me complain about my back or anything much for that matter as I have a tendancy to ride things out like the aching fingers or whatever unless it stops me cold in my tracks. Maybe I'll remember to ask her about it if I think I definately need an Nsaid or similar type of med to help w/arthritic symptoms. Usually being active helps the arthtitis like symptoms I have or so far fortunately.
Sounds like you're hurting quite a bit. Sorry to hear that and hope that the ESI helps
