"i took 2 advil for 5 yrs to alleviate arthritis pain.  my hip/groin pain got so bad, i finally went to see a doc.  he prescribed celebrex..  it works great for my hands.... but not my hip. someone suggested taking tylenol with the celebrex -- much better results. i take l,000 mg of tylenol and 200 mg celebrex, daily.  i hope by summer the heat will help my arthritis and i can cut back on the tylenol.  celebrex is very expensive. i wish the results had been a lot better for me but as a professional pianist, i&#039;m so grateful that it works great on my hands."
