Aspirin For Pain

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Hermitage, TN

Has anybody use Aspirin, Goody's, or BC for pain? Plain old Aspirin seems to help me more then anything with my pain. My doctor does not want me taking Aspirin. Most prescription medications and Tylenol make me sleepy. Ibuprofen does not do a thing for me.
Aspirin is only pain medication I have found so far, that I can take while working that helps with the pain.

I have taken Celebrex, but got no relief. I also tried vioxx but it upset my stomach terribly!

Hmm! I'm baffled @A MyFibroTeam Member Have you mentioned this to your doc.? Aspirin is an anti-inflammatory. It can cause water retention. Maybe that's what you're feeling?

I have taken goody's since I was a kid and after my fibro kicked in they helped tremendously. But after a few years of that it started feeling like if I took more than one a day it would make my fibro pain worse.

I use Aleve (naproxen sodium). I takes the pain down, but doesn't completely get rid of it.
