i have only taken naproxen for my tos

and even then i only take it when i can tell somethigns inflamed

im raelly curious if drugs can help me. im hypermobile so taking muscle relaxers seems tricky even tho i have SOME super tight muscles

The one medication I have taken is Diclofenac, an NSAID.

The maximum dose of that I've taken is 600 mg a day, but at that relatively low dose I experience stomach burn and some bleeding, so I've also been prescribed Omeprazole to counter this effect.

I am not TOS, but RSI -

I was given Effexor today to start for pain and tramadol for break through pain. I dont have depression issues - was/am trying to find other folks with RSI issues/similar to see how they liked this med and if they felt it really helped any? I see alot of folks that take this gain weight - and trust me I dont need more weight on me... so just curious. I was told at a low dose I shouldnt gain. Dont see too many RSI folks when I google it take it..... so thought I would ask here since this board has been a help in the past - and here .. a post on drugs.. thought I would try. Thanks

Thanks so much everyone for your answers! I really appreciate your openness and willingness to help me out! It's a difficult subject, and this is the only place I know of to turn to when you have a issue like this one.

I feel so much better hearing from you all.

Thanks again,

Maddy
