Here is a link to a web site that discusses the drug. It does mention the blood

thinning questions and answers. Check out the information and see if you can get

doctors with conflicting oppinions to talk to each other and decide what

treatment course is the best for you. Hope this answers some of your questions.

What are you thoughts? I certainly don't want to flare when I am in casts up

to my hips. But on the other hand I am not interested in finding out that my

blood isn't clotting due to the Celebrex.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Keri, Yes I was on Celebrex and well not only did it do that, which I

am a bleeder. I also had allergic reactions to it. But yes it does cause

the blood to thin.

Keri.

Hi don't think we've met. Celebrex is like an aspirin. I had a hip surgery

(THR) and the Docs left me on my NSAIDS. I had a shoulder replacement and

they took me off. Seems we are more likely to develop a clot when we become

temp. less mobile so they let you have or give you an aspirin-based medicine

so you don't develop those. Think I'd want to question both Docs a little

deeper and even mention the other's opinion to them. Good luck w/ the

surgery. Mine went Fine. Love to ya. --Sue

If Celebrex this the blood, it will likely make the Stills rash worse.

Anyone experience this?

Hi a

Recently there was a comparison of celebrex and some other high dollar

anti-inflammatory versus ibuprofen, the results were celebrex and the others

don't work any better than ibuprofen. The comparison also said to save yourself

some money and use ibuprofen in place of the high dollar prescription

anti-inflammatory. This is probably what your insurance company is referring to.

This comparison was on television a few weeks ago. Hope this helps.

Celebrex

I received a letter from my doctor that he received from the insurance

company regarding Celebrex. Basically the letter was saying that for his

patients using Celebrex, he should consider using less expensive NSAIDS

(may have letters wrong, but I'm sure you know what I mean). Have any of

you others who are using Celebrex received such a notice from your doctor?

And that was my biggest problem with other NSAIDS. In the beginning

when they were trying different drugs on me at one point I was on 800

mg ibuprofen 3 x a day and I ended up in emergency feeling like I was

giving birth the pain was so bad. I was constantly in and out of the

hospitals and clinics because of severe stomach pain. I still have

problems with nauseousness periodically but I don't have a problem

with the stomach pain like I did.

I agree a,

While on other NSAIDS a bleeding ulcer developed

due to the harshness of the meds on the stomach.

Having taken Celebrex for 2 years plus without also

taking Tagamet or something else for stomach protection,

and experiencing *no* stomach problems, I applaud the

scientists for this discovery...too bad this medication had

to be stopped due to it making me very ill, because it did

help relieve a lot of pain.

I have a friend who is on Celebrex and she has *no*

insurance coverage. She pays $5 a pill for it. That is

rather pricey.

Your friend, Tricia

Hi a; I think the reson many doctors prefer the Celebrex and Vioxx may

be because the newer NSAID's are easier on the stomach and over long years

of use that can be a very important factor. Melt

Hi-- I have used Celebrex..and it works pretty well.

I've had no side affects that I can recall. I am

currently taking Vioxx for arthritis which helps me

more than Celebrex. My doctor says that both drugs

have the same kind of properties, but sometimes one or

the other works better depending on the person. Hope

this helps!

I have used Celebrex in the past, to help with arthritis pain. Yes

it is effective, but after several months of my taking this

medication, I found that it messed up my stomach. I was then taken

off Celebrex and prescribed an alternative medication, of which

didn't seem to react as harshly on my stomach.

I think at the time it was Ultram, but I also found that Ultram made

me feel 'too good', if that makes any sense. Also Ultram hasn't been

out long enough for the medical profession to know the longterm side

effects. So I then decided to keep searching for a less evasive

alternative.

As I have mentioned in a previous post, I am know taking Lortab

(Hydrocodone is the generic version) which for me, seems to be the

more effective analgesic for pain..for the time being, anyway!

Yes I also was on Celebrex-it did work on the arthritis in my knees

and wrists and elbows. But after a few months I kept hearing how 2

inhibitors (such as Celebrex and Vioxx) can cause stroke and heart

attack. Since my parents are both gone-Dad had complications along

with heart failure, and Mom passed away from hypertensive

hemmorrhage, I felt since I am predisposed to these, I took myself

off Celebrex. I just use Ibuprofen and plain old stretching and

exercise. There are good days, and also bad-but I do have days where

I can get away with not having to take Ibuprofen.

I have been on a combination of Ultram and Celebrex for about four years. I

haven't had any side effects from Celebrex but if I over do the Ultram I get a

headache the next day.

Chances are, if you are feeling too good, you can usually cut your dose in half.

I take 100mg a day of Ultram and one 200 mg pill a day of the Celebrex.

Vioxx has been known to increase blood pressure and cause water gain. Celebrex

can cause kidney and liver problems.

Be your own best advocate and go to GOOGLE.com and look up all three

medications. I think Ultram is the least offensive IF used properly.

Good luck next week Tami, we are thinking about you! Glad you are

more relaxed now. Are you taking pre-op prednisone or not? Also, glad

you can take the Celebrex for the pain, I have to take Ultram so I

use it sparingly. Trudy.

Hi Trudy,

I can't take prednisone or any other steroid. Celebrex should help reduce some of the inflamation. I've been taking singulair the last couple of days. Wow!! I can't believe what a difference it is starting to make in my breathing. I have fall and spring problems with asthma only.

Thanks for you kind words.

Celebrex is still on them market. That is what I was taking too.

Stopped last week...Hope not to need it anymore!

Yesterday my PT pushed me to the limit. Did some resistance thing that

made my knees hurt I kept telling her that it did not feel good, and she

said this is necessary..- Today My knees hurt worse than in the last 5

years... so need to eliminate that if I can, I am bone on bone with the

knees, but they were always a secondary problem.- one I do not want to

agravate. Let me recover from one TR before I am made to do

another...besides they say the knees are worse!

Wow! Tami, I feel sorry that you are suffering with the headaches. I am still taking The Tylenol 3's for my pain because my surgery is so new. Last week when I had to work in my daycare I had to take just regular old Tylenol and they worked fine. I hope this will continue. My problem is more of a burning sensation in my nose since the debrie was removed. You are not alone. I am so far pleased with this ENT because the last one only wanted me to rinse and live with the other symptoms. It maybe time for you to look for another one.tibor vais <tiborv@...> wrote: Hi Tami --Do you know that you are alergic to Tylenol?

Hi Tibor,

I had an anaphalactic reaction to Tylenol (2000 mg) about 15 years ago. Smaller doses make me get itchy and break out in hives.

Hi Tami,

I think that because you have had an anaphylactic reaction you should find a doctor who will do it in a hospital.

I got an estimate from National Jewish a few years ago and it was about $2500. I would think that Scripps would be as much or more now that they are not funded. It is a lot of money but less than a car and more valuable.

Write a note to all the allergists in your region and see if any respond.

I wish you could feel better for the working season.

Hi Tibor,

I had an anaphalactic reaction to Tylenol (2000 mg) about 15 years ago. Smaller doses make me get itchy and break out in hives.

Thanks Tami

Thank You Pam,

I wish I would have been more on the ball previous to my busy season. Good news though, I'm feeling a little relief after taking Celebrex this am. If this works, it will solve my pain problem at least.

Re: celebrex

Hi Tami,I think that because you have had an anaphylactic reaction you should find a doctor who will do it in a hospital. I got an estimate from National Jewish a few years ago and it was about $2500. I would think that Scripps would be as much or more now that they are not funded. It is a lot of money but less than a car and more valuable. Write a note to all the allergists in your region and see if any respond. I wish you could feel better for the working season.PamOn 5/13/06 1:12 PM, "Tami Klumpyan" <tami@...> wrote:
