Hi Ray,

I tried Bextra but it caused mental confusion -- much more than my

now-normal state.<G> Robbie was also put on Bextra. He developed internal

bleeding. I don't know for sure if the Bextra was to blame but the timing

was suspicious. It's supposed to have fewer GI side effects than Vioxx or

Celebrex but the people I've talked to, and my rheumatologist concurs, find

that it's been causing somewhat more trouble.
