"I suffered from sudden foot pain (probably a stress fracture). Aleve was working for me, but my podiatrist put me on meloxicam since my stomach was not bothered by the Aleve. After the first day, I had a very upset stomach. I did take the meloxicam for a second day, but was chewing Tums constantly so my stomach wasn't so upset. I stopped taking it after day 2. On the bright side, I had no pain in my foot for a few days. Now, I have some slight foot pain, but I'll live with that until the foot is healed."

"I had surgery on my ankle about 7 years ago for ligament repair. 4 years ago, I also had suture removal and granuloma. A couple of weeks ago, I went back to the surgeon, and he prescribed me meloxicam, and it hasn't helped at all. It has been past the 2 weeks, and that is when the pills are supposed to kick in."

"I was recently diagnosed with tennis elbow. My MD prescribed meloxicam. Two hours after taking it, I started experiencing intolerable leg pain (pain like I have never experienced), flu-like symptoms (chills, mild fever), fatigue, loss of appetite, loss of interest in work/hobbies, mild nausea. I discontinued the medicine twelve days ago. While side effects have improved, I'm still experiencing some. I can honestly say that I have never felt this bad in my life."
