Naproxen, ibuprofen, arthrotec, pregabalin, etc. Used to be daily, multiple times. And tecta to protect my stomach from bleeding out my nose. Still in fuckloads of pain - always.

But by stopping the frequency i have found it helps with the tolerance. I've also lost maybe 75 lbs over 5-ish years which also helps.

My doc knows I have issues with other drugs and I'm hesitant to take anything more potent for pain.

I want the pain to end but I don't want the remedy to destroy the rest of me.
