Lowered dose of Celebrex and Achilles enthesitis went crazy

General
1

I can't even drive across town without awful pain when I get out and stand, both Achilles are mad at me for lowering my Celebrex.

Was on 2 a day and finally have weaned back to one 200mg a day. This pain is the hardest part.

I HATE putting my feet on the floor when I wake up. Really have to think about it and ease into standing or I would fall.

What soothes this without anti-inflammatory, I see that Prednisone can cause it so not taking that anymore.

Ideas?

There are topological NDSAIDs that may work for that or maybe alternating hot and cold packs. Long term NSAIDs thrash your stomach and blood pressure.

Thanks,

I have used Voltaren before maybe I'll try that again.

It was hurting so much in the mornings, yesterday I decided to wait till night to take my Celebrex which helped this morning. I will probably find out that was a bad idea, later, at work. Ha, got to love it,
