"Been taking ibuprofen 800 3x a day, and always with food. A PA urged me to go off of it last Mon (now Wed) and replace with tramadol; said he didn't know anyone who didn't get stomach ulcers or have kidney problems when on ibuprofen for extended period. Each day pain grew worse until today I could hardly get out of bed as pain was excruciating. Cooked breakfast in a hurry, switched back to ibuprofen and now pain free by noon"
