Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Posted March 11, 2006 Hi , I was taking Ibuprofen but it started bothering my stomach so I tried Aleve and it is working better for pain and not bothering my stomach.

It's now 9:53 and I don't think it's working. Anyone know if you build up a tolerance to ibuprofen over time? Maybe I should switch to another pain reliever for the time being. At least until I switch to Copaxone or LDN or both. Any suggestions? My MS & TM WebSite www.crystalangel.org Bring photos to life! New PhotoMail makes sharing a breeze. Quote

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Posted March 11, 2006 I'm on Rebif which you may know is a 3x a week routine and it gives me a crackin' headache if I don't pop two Aleve before I shoot up. I usually do a Benadryl too. Brett Quote
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Posted March 11, 2006 Hi , What are you taking the advil for? Pain or temperature? The reason I am asking is, I found the advil worked well for me pain wise while on avonex but the tylenol worked better for a temperature. Are you taking it 1-2 hours before shot and after? I am so glad to be off the avonex. Be careful and in tune with any depression related thoughts. Report it right away. Take Care > Took another shot of Avonex last night.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Posted March 13, 2006 I had to take advil every two hours for a 24 hr period when I was on it. 2 --- Vaccaro <jaynbeth@...> wrote: > Took another shot of Avonex last night.
