This sucks.

Bextra was the only COX-2 medication that worked for me.

Now I'm back to just the sulfasalazine.

I'll have to take Ibuprofen again when the pain starts.

&%%#$@%(*& We thought we heard something about this while stranded in the
Atlanta airport yesterday (long miserable story.... it's boring at any time,
but really awful when you're sick and just want to be home in bed
whimpering....) I'd managed to block it out though.

Guess I gotta call my RD's office Monday. They must just love having to
field all the calls when something like this happens.
