Questions about Ginger and Bextra

[Guest guest]

Hi family, Got two questions for you.

I take Bextra for arthritis...I know some of you have strong opinions

about these drugs, but for me, for now, I am taking it especially since I had

my back Xray'd and the Dr. said I had bone spurs and lots of osteoarthrits..

I am upping the Calcium Citrate too. My question is....Are there any of these

arthritis drugs that come in a transdermal patch? and if you have to take

Bextra how to take it and protect the pouch?

I am leaving this Friday for a birding trip to south Florida and we will be

on a boat for three days going to and from the Dry Tortugas..my questions

concerns sea sickness. I have the Rx patch but it doesn't work well for

birdwatching...it can make you sleepy..and miss the birds? It can also make

your eyes light sensitive..I forget if it dialates the pupils or constricts

them?

I have taken baby Drammine for a one day, but this is for 3 days.....a

friend takes GINGER. Obviously I can't take candied ginger, she takes Ginger

Ease..I can't find that brand here but I did find something called Ginger

force...after I opened it....which means I can't return it...discovered it is

in a gelcap..

If I remember correctly it passes through? and the gelcap doesn't

dissolve...I bit into it and found out it is very bitter tasting, so this

won't work. The tea won't work either....lots of bathroom trips and there is

only one on board...and again I would miss the birds..... Someone help!!!
