My wife had to come off Celebrex because of soaring indicators for kidneys. She has become more symptomatic. Sometimes the choices are not good. If it helps you, think that there is one less poison that you are eating. You cannot stay alive if your liver fails and dialysis would be terrible. I searched your old posts and so I hope this is not redundant. I use Mortons Epsom Salt lotion before I go to bed for the burning and tenderness on my feet. Also I take Zolpidem (generic Ambien) about 30 min before bedtime. Yes, it's another pill and yes, I have a relationship with it. Sleep, however is escape from the pain and necessary for mind and body. I wish you better choices and hope you find a path that is tolerable yet not harming your vital organs. Ken in Texas.
