I have a question ...

If I already know that I have osteoarthritis and I take pain meds and a chaser of OTC NSAIDS, what is the rheumy dr going to do any different?

I was one of those who was on Vioxx years back and like ThreePutt I felt like a millions bucks. I had my life back!

Then they took it off the market and I was back to square one. Through the years I got through the bad days just as enjoying the good ones.

Fast forward to today 20 years later.... dx of MS and my osteoarthritis has gotten much worse. I know I am older now and things just don't work like they used to but come on now .... the medical field is suppose to have gotten advanced.

But I am not getting any better .... I miss my Vioxx
