For Rheumatoid Arthritis "I have taken Mobic sporadically for the last 3 years. I only take it when I'm really in pain and cannot manage the pain through natural methods. It helps me to sleep, and it helps the pain in my hands and hip. I do not feel groggy when I wake up, but sometimes I am stiff and hurting from sleeping so deeply."

For Rheumatoid Arthritis "Have been taking it for 2 weeks and now wake up stiff and in a lot of pain. I can barely walk because I have arthritis in my ankle. I'm going to have to go back to my other medicine because this one does not work at all for me."

For Rheumatoid Arthritis "I have been on Mobic about 18 months. I didn’t think it was doing much till I ran out. Then I realized, Mobic has reduced my pain and morning stiffness substantially. Very good and doesn’t bother my stomach. I take it after meals in the evening with my Plaquenil. Also on Plaquenil and prednisolone in the mornings. Trying to get away without using methotrexate."
