Arcoxia

etoricoxib (90mg) for arthritis
I took this drug for pain associated with a rheumatoid arthritis flare. Within 2 days my limbs had all swollen and I was in extreme pain. I was suffering severe cramping pains in legs and had trouble controlling my bladder. The symptoms lasted several weeks and needed oral steroids to regain control. I wouldn't use again.

Vertebra infection. First 3 weeks went well. Then it all went to pot. Now I can't walk any where near as much as I used to and when it's really bad I have to use a wheelchair.
