Feldene (piroxicam) "I have been taking this medication for pain in my foot. My Dr. gave it to me for planters faciitis. I was in such pain that I could barely walk when getting out of bed or standing after sitting for a while. One pill lasts for 24 hours, and works great. I haven't been taking it long, so don't know yet if I will get any side effects, but works good for pain, and I can still function normally."

Feldene (piroxicam) "I was working in the field making hydraulic hoses making close to $10,000/mo. when I pulled hose off a reel and herniated two disks. I was laid up for 45 days on Workers Comp, barely able to make it to the bathroom and following everything my doctors were telling me to do. I got frustrated because they were putting other people in my area that I developed. I called a doctor who suggested Feldene and said it would take two weeks before it took effect. I was bouncing off the walls in two weeks and returned to work a week later. It allowed me to move and not become stiff. The Ibuprofen and muscle relaxants, did nothing to help me."

"I was introduced to the painkiller for periods cramps in 2005 and it worked magic. A single pill takes me through a period of 5 days. It gives me relief to go though my job and other duties normally. I wonder whether there are any side effects even though i take one pill per month and at times i dont. I hope am not at any risk as i feel the pill is God sent."

"When complaining to a Surgeon I know about Motrin effecting my stomach he says take what I take, been around for ever and it's a once a day pill!...I will never look back folks. I have a bulging disc that flairs up when I over do it, take this and a Chiro adjustment and I'm better, sometimes I can avoid the Chiro. Been taking it for seven years. A few months ago I get some crazy Planters Fishie thing and I want to cut my right foot off!!!! New Doc says what anti-inflammatory do you want, what else right? So within a week of taking 20 MG and hitting another 400 to 600 a day over the counter Ibuprofen gel caps and this thing gets 85% better! Like another writer noted, ITS AFFORDABLE! Eat first and hey, follow the stupid directions on all Meds"

Feldene (piroxicam) "I recently had hip surgery and was in lots of pain after the operation. I tried Ibuprofen and Voltaren with little relief. My doctor called in a script for Feldene 20 mg twice a day for me. It helped so much with the pain bringing it to a manageable level but caused the most severe constipation. So after about 5 days I switched back to Voltaren and the constipation eased up and thankfully the pain was better too."

"Had extreme pain after someone dislocated my shoulder by accidentally yanking downward on it...after the doctor replaced it the tendons were highly inflamed. After a stint on both tramadol and codeine I felt nothing but sickness on my stomach, dizziness and no relief. My doctor then took me off all opiates and went for a NSAIDS three prolonged attack with the norm...paracetamol, ibuprofen and piroxicam however five minutes after applying the piroxicam all the pain had completely gone. It works for three to four hours and two months after the injury I'm still not 100% but I'm back doing light bodybuilding thanks to this amazing stuff. I never had faith in topical medicines, how wrong I was."
