pffft on Naproxen "cry" | Arthritis Information

 

it became a wonder drug for me, it did help with swelling and with bad pain, but it caused my eyes to see weird stuff and blur and then it caused my hands and feet to feel asleep when they shouldn't be.

I'm sorry. :( i miss plaquenil.   my whole body has gone to hell without it.   we have tornadoes all around us right now!    went to the doctor yesterday.   i have been on most everything.  he did not know what to do.   finally he came back in the room and said take aspirin.  take as much aspirin as you want with meals.   what kind of answer is this????    during bad storms like now my blood vessels feel like they are popping.  it is the strangest thing ever.   happy mother's day to everybody!   wonderwomanbubba - are you sure it was the naproxen?  Have you spoken with your doctors, pharmacists, or other members of your medical team?  Can you take a lower dose, or perhaps just take a break from it for a few weeks and retry it?

That's a bummer... naproxen is my closest ally when I have pain/swelling (and not just for RA!!!).
When i stopped the naproxen, it stopped.  then over a week later i started it again and everything started again.  It all stopped now that i am not on it.
