I think I am getting better results from the ib prophen than the Excedrin.  The Excedrin I have is extra strength.  If I take two at once it makes me feel queasy and sometimes I barf.  So I've been just taking one, then a few hours later take another one.  The IB prophen I've been doing two at a time and it seems to work a bit better. 
 
I"m about to go home from work soon so I'll do the nice hot shower and towel thing. Thanks for all your replies.
