I am taking Humira, fortnightly. Is it meant to stop the pain or just the inflammation levels? My Rheumy says tests show my Inflammation levels are down, however I still experience a lot of pain and stiffness and have to take pain medication, Tramadol 100mgSR or 50mg ; Endone 5mg.

Has anyone had problems with low platelet counts while taking Enberal? Just got a call from rhemy and said to stop taking the Enberal and anti-inflammatory (Diclofenac). I'm nervous enough about the platelet count let alone knowing what the pain is going to be like very soon.

I'm on 15 mg of Morophine 2x a day, 5 mgPercocet 2 pills 4x a day and Muscle Relaxers 3x a day but the Morophine doesn't seem to be working and the Percocet lasts shorter than it did. I have a phone appt with my doc tomorrow, should I increase the MG of Morophine, I'm going to increase the percocet from 5mg to 10mg, and they're considering Oxycontin instead of the Morophine, any suggestions?

I've been diagnosed as undifferentiated spondylarthritis and i've been on remicade for 1 year. Although i'm better, i still have significant pain....especially in my lower back. I still have to take tramadol 2-3 times daily to maintain the pain. Is this common or is it possible that the remicade isn't working? I usually feel pretty good during the middle 4 weeks, but for 2 weeks after my treatment and 2 weeks before i'm in alot of pain. I'm quite frustrated.

This is a question but information. I tried so many different combinations of pain meds/ muscle relaxers. As of today I have an amazing pain med that has change my life. It is called Nucynta. I take the highest dose of 100mg & it has been great. After a month I had seen such an improvement that I don't have to use a walker anymore. If you are having any problems with pain meds, ask your Dr. To try this one. If you do get it ask your Dr. For the discount card that comes with it?

Is curious how many on HUMIRA also need to take pain meds on a regular basis? What pain meds do you take? I find that with HUMIRA, Celebrex and Tylenol arthritis I have been doing pretty good. I still have pain but I realize that is never going to go away. I also exercise almost daily because if I don't I get super stiff.

I went to a pain specialist yesterday for the very first time and I think its the best doctor I've been to in a long time. He listened to everything I had to say and helped me learn the difference between pain med addiction and dependence. I am dependant on pain meds to make my day liveable. My question is: He prescribed me a new med called Opana ER. Can anyone give me a lowdown on the side effects and/or whether or not it worked for you?

I just realized that Voltaren Gel can mess up your stomach as bad as aspirin can! :'-( sigh - is there no anti-inflammatory drug that doesnt? (I was using the gel because I was developing an ulcer on Mobic)
