LB Question

Can you please remind me why we are NOT to use NSAID'S with the LB? I have this bum arm that only seems to respond to Advil. I am going to a orthopedic surgeon tomorrow morning and I know he will give me something like that.


Thank You for giving me your opinion!

Never heard of that! I take ibuprofen, aspirin, Tylenol with no problem. Guess I should do a google but then, why would we not be ale to take drugs?

I've heard no Advil either, but it's the only thing that seems to work for me, so as long as I'm not popping it like a crazy person (which I don't anymore - less pain these days!) then I don't worry too much about it.

NSAIDs are very difficult to digest and will irriate the lining of your stomach. Hugs sweetie.

Yep, I heard as per Barbara's comment, but since ibuprofen is about the only thing that seems to work on my headaches, I still use it occasionally :p as long as I don't use it too often I'm not too worried about it.

I have a sleeve, but my surgeon warned me about ibuprofen and said if I take it, to make sure I take it with food.
