[QUOTE="Grafted In, post: 70515483, member: 306139"] With your health concerns I think it would be wrong to deny you the benefits of a plant that has far less harmful effects than what they would prefer you use. Even less harmful than over the counter pain meds. Pick up a bottle of Ibuprofen and read the dangers of a pain medication that a child can buy over the counter. Same thing with acetaminophen (Tylenol). Those are basically what is available over the counter and both place you at far worse risk of death or severe damage to your already compromised immune system. If anyone has the health problems you have, wacky tobacky should be an option made available to them. I recently asked my doctor to a range a knee replacement for me, but doctor insisted I try pain medication instead. So off to the pharmacy I go with a perscription for Meloxicam. Same family of drugs that includes Ibuprofen. Here's a list of side effects of using Meloxicam. I copied it from Drugs.com: [B]Less common:[/B] [LIST] [*]Arm, back, or jaw pain [*]bleeding gums [*]bloating [*]blood in the urine [*]blurred vision [*]burning upper abdominal or stomach pain [*]canker sores [*]chest tightness or heaviness [*]chills [*]cloudy urine [*]cough [*]cramping [*]dark urine [*]decreased frequency or amount of urine [*]difficult or labored breathing [*]dilated neck veins [*]dizziness [*]dizziness, faintness, or lightheadedness when getting up suddenly from a lying or sitting position [*]general tiredness and weakness [*]headache [*]hives or welts [*]increased blood pressure [*]increased sensitivity of the skin to sunlight [*]increased thirst [*]irregular breathing [*]itching, redness, or other discoloration of the skin [*]large, hive-like swelling on the face, eyelids, lips, tongue, throat, hands, legs, feet, or sex organs [*]light-colored stools [*]loss of appetite [*]lower side or back pain [*]noisy breathing [*]pain or discomfort in the arms, jaw, back, or neck [*]painful or difficult urination [*]pains in the stomach, side, or abdomen, possibly radiating to the back [*]pinpoint red or purple spots on the skin [*]pounding in the ears [*]redness, soreness, or itching skin [*]seizures [*]severe and continuing nausea [*]severe sunburn [*]shakiness in the legs, arms, hands, or feet [*]skin blisters [*]sore throat [*]sores, ulcers, or white spots on the lips or tongue or inside the mouth [*]sores, welting, or blisters [*]stomach bloating, burning, cramping, tenderness, or pain [*]sweating [*]swelling or puffiness of the face [*]swollen glands [*]trembling or shaking of the hands or feet [*]trouble breathing [*]unusual bleeding or bruising [*]upper right abdominal or stomach pain [*]watery or bloody diarrhea [*]weight gain or loss [*]yellow eyes or skin [/LIST] [B]Rare[/B] [LIST] [*]Area rash [*]blistering, peeling, or loosening of the skin [*]bloody or black, tarry stools [*]clay-colored stools [*]cold, clammy skin [*]continuing vomiting [*]cough or hoarseness [*]cracks in the skin [*]difficulty with swallowing [*]fast, weak pulse [*]fever with or without chills [*]greatly decreased frequency of urination or amount of urine [*]joint or muscle pain [*]lightheadedness [*]loss of heat from the body [*]puffiness or swelling of the eyelids or around the eyes, face, lips, or tongue [*]red skin lesions, often with a purple center [*]red, irritated eyes [*]red, swollen skin [*]scaly skin [*]severe stomach pain [*]tightness in the chest [*]unpleasant breath odor [*]unusual tiredness or weakness [*]vomiting of blood or material that looks like coffee grounds [/LIST] [B]Incidence not known:[/B] [LIST] [*]Difficulty with speaking [*]double vision [*]inability to move the arms, legs, or facial muscles [*]inability to speak [*]pains in the chest, groin or legs, especially the calves [*]severe headaches of sudden onset [*]slow speech [*]sudden loss of coordination [*]sudden onset of shortness of breath for no apparent reason [*]sudden onset of slurred speech [*]sudden vision changes [/LIST] [B]If any of the following symptoms of overdose occur while taking meloxicam, get emergency help immediately:[/B] [B]Symptoms of overdose:[/B] [LIST] [*]Blue lips, fingernails, or skin [*]convulsions (seizures) [*]pain in the chest, upper stomach, or throat [*]severe stomach pain [*]skin rash [*]slow or fast heartbeat [*]swelling around the eyes, face, lips, or tongue [*]weight gain (rapid) [/LIST] [SIZE=4][B]Minor Side Effects[/B][/SIZE] Some of the side effects that can occur with meloxicam may not need medical attention.
