I was in a lot of pain in my lower back and shooting pain down my leg for months, and had increasing difficulty in walking and sleeping. I had been forced to use a cane, and a scooter to get around and I could no longer walk any distance. I had to stop physical therapy because the pain was too bad and epidural injections seemed to offer little relief. The MRI indicated that I had tissue from a her...

I feel less pain in your joints but I feel less at ease. It's hard to explain this. I feel an uneasiness that is maybe a milder form of anxiety, but it's physical, somehow.

Some of the pain associated with Joint Imflammatory Disease (especially in my knees) was eased. But the medication upset my stomach so bad, I had to quit taking it.

Because I was afraid of the side effects, I only took 1 per day and that may not, have been adequate to decrease chronic pain of radiculopathy and neck pain from a fall.

I could hardly walk the pain would get so bad on my left knee sometimes. Now 2 pills a day and I feel great. This drug has also done wonders for my shoulder and my hands. The side effects can be severe for some people but freedom from pain for me is wonderful and no doppy feeling I would get from oxycodone. If your stomach can take the occasional upset they are well worth it in my humble opinion.

I have osteoarthritis in my lumbar spine. This causes aching down my leg into my foot. Celebrex was very effective but it caused my stomach to be so upset I had to stop taking it.

No side effects after two weeks. It has worked like a miracle drug for my knees and ankles (heals) and upper back. I feel twenty years younger. I now have a good nights sleep.

i thought this medication worked pretty well compared to other naids, but then my calfs and feet swelled alot and hurt terribly. i had every test in the book to rule out other things, finally decided to go off celebrex since that is a side effect. swelling and pain and gone down some within 1 day. and hoping it continues. too bad for me i guess.

Have taken 1/2 prescribed dose (200mg) every day for over 10 years. If I miss one days pill I know by 5PM the following day because my joint pain is increased materially.

Severe pain in feet and lower legs caused by arthritis in foot and ankle joints. I work in retail sales only two days a week, but was considering quitting my job because my feet hurt so bad. Celebrex has been a godsend. For the first time in months my feet don't hurt.
