osteoarthritis
"I have severe Osteo Arthritis in most of my major joints: Spine, shoulders, hips, knees (until I just had bi-lateral knee replacements in August). I've had spinal fusion L3-S1 for OA complications and continued OA in the remainder of my spine. 

I've been taking Etodolac twice daily along with other pain meds for over 14 years.  I've never had any adverse problems with it. I do however take Zantac 75 or equivalent twice daily to help protect my stomach.

I'm a firm believer in this medication. When I need to come of of it for a procedure, my OA flares up once again. 

With my daily medication regime I continue to work full time in a shipyard and as a Fire Chief on a volunteer fire department. 

Give it a try, it may just do wonders for you."
