"i was given diclofenac for an inflamed tendon in my foot. i was told to take it for 3 weeks and see how my symptoms were. after 3 weeks my foot pain was gone. i was told to drop it to 1 pill per day for 3 more weeks. i had been in menopause for over a year. i got a period and one of the side effects is changes in your menstrual cycle. not happy. after i stopped taking the pills, about a week now, i&#039;ve had horrible pain in both knees that i didn&#039;t have before, and the pain in my foot is back. i have a popping in the back of one knee that someone says sounds like it may be a baker&#039;s cyst. i can&#039;t even walk normal. i have an appointment this coming week and will try to follow up. not sure if this caused it, but too much of a coincidence."
