"The first day, unnoticed and stiffness in my back, but I had driven a lot that day, so I didn’t think anything of it. I began having more pain each day, like repetitive muscle use strain in my right mid-back (kidney area and up) and spreading around to my right side. On day 5, I stood up to walk, and my whole left side seized up and started spasming, from my rib cage and obliques all the way around my side to my back all the way up. I couldn’t catch my breath. Every time I moved, it would seize. The pain was unbearable. Tylenol helped, but It went on for hours. Luckily my gut was the medicine, so I stopped. It started to slowly improve, but two days after, it was like someone had beaten me up. My muscles ache so bad + loose stools, burning in my abdomen. The nurse told me it might take me up to a week to get it out of my system. Thank goodness I stopped taking it. I don’t know what the outcome might have been."

"I had moderate pain at the top of my left foot up to mid-ankle area. Felt almost like a sprain. Doc put me on one 1.5mg per day and the pain stopped within 24 hours. Probably one of the most effective meds I have ever taken. I have been taking them for about 3 months now and I am gonna stop to see if the pain has gone for good. I am very pleased with the results."

"Took it for back pain and it helped a ton. When I stopped taking it, I realized it was helping aches and pains elsewhere too. Worked great for me."

"It took away my pain, but made me drowsy and depressed. Also, it made me retain serious water. I recommend only taking this as a serious last resort!"
