I am taking it for tendinitis/pain behind my right knee and really have not had any side effects this week.

How about you, do you have any side effects?
I've only taken it once....last night. I was able to get some sleep. Before, my pain was waking me up and bringing me to tears. My only concern is that it can raise the liver enzymes. Mine are not completely out of whack, just a little raised already. I'll have to keep watch on this. I haven't hand any side effects yet.

Are you getting relief from your pain? It sounds painful to me. Not only is this medicine giving me some relief from my deltoid pain in the shoulder, it is easing the discomfort of my elbow tendonitis and carpal tunnel of the wrist.

I'm calling Monday morning and asking for an ultrasound to see if there is a tear or something. I had a massage this afternoon and the guy put his finger right on the pain of the deltoid!! He said he could feel something that was not normal. All I know is that it hurt like the dickens!

Let me know how you get along on this medicine. Did the doctor give you any exercises to do to help promote healing?
