Dale,

While I left the opiates, Neurontin, AD's behind just a few weeks after my adr surgery in 2002, I have never been able to be off the anti-inflammatories for more than a couple of weeks. It's never worth it. Stomach irritation has not been an issue, but it may be starting up. I really am sorry that Bextra was taken off the market. Not only was the the best nsaid for me, but it also had the best stomache buffer.

I'm sorry that you cannot stay of the celebrex... I was so glad when you posted. I'll be that you'll try again in a few months. You are ahead of where you were months ago... maybe you'll continue to improve.

Mark
