Pain killers! What works and doesnt...

My advice is be damn careful. 2-3 years ago I was "pushin" a little and my arthritis was flared up--actually much worse this year.

Doc had me on some medication for that, and I was "adding" over the counter "Aleve"

Fri afternoon before Xmas---felt great, helped dig out a friend after plow went by

Fri eve--not very hungry, late lunch, had some 'mater soup

Fri later about 9PM felt "yucky" "I'll problably be up later tonight"

!! WENT TO SLEEP !!

1? 2? 3? AM Up, very "out of it" puking blood (thought it was 'mater soup) fainted on floor of bathroom for HOURS, not coherant, not thinking straight

around 8AM? finally got awake enough to realize my plight, called 911 and the big box came and hauled me away hee hee ha ha

Went to hospital, day and 1/2, then fought anemia and weakness FOR REST OF WINTER and STILL TO THIS DAY I have stomach / digestive problems and take buffer meds for my gut

BE CAREFUL This was caused by an over-the counter med, mixed with a prescription arthritis pain med
