Nooooooooooo!

Vioxx is being pulled from the market.

Crap. No, I've not been taking it a whole lot lately, but it's been the only thing that takes the edge off my wrist pain when that's flaring up, especially without giving me a lot of nasty side effects.

Poo.

Have you tried Celebrex or Bextra? (Celebrex works for me, neither of the others do.)

Celebrex makes my intestines revolt against the rest of my body. It's very not pretty. Bextra I haven't tried--I'll have to talk to my doc soon I guess.

Yeah, I took it for a brief while when my CTS was at its worst and it really did help manage the pain. What a shame.
