ANGIE Question ref: pain meds

[Guest guest]

I've taken Ibuprofen before with little help in relief. It normally

ends up making my stomach upset. I have used the Lidoderm patches

before for an injury I had and it helped then. I'll check on that. I

do know that the Salonpas capsaicin patches haven't helped my back, but

have helped other parts (arms and legs).

I can take acetiminophen with no adverse reaction, just Lortab and

Percocet make me red and itchy.

Thank for your input.
