NAPROXEN vs UPADACITINIB

Going to a small get-together for new years, and the poison ring I bought myself came in JUST in time! Cant wait to discreetly take my mid-party naproxen without having to fish through my purse! Happy new year everyone, may 2026 hurt less than 2025 🥳

I have so much wrong with me. Like it’s genuinely whole body at this point. Back pain, internal tremors, migraines, stomach issues, fatigue, heart palpitations, dysautonomia, rib pain, brain fog, vertigo, muscle inflammation, hands aching, pain that covers my whole body, knees hurting. I could keep

I'm hypermobile and fat and this has caused me to develop osteoarthritis in my hip, normal NSAIDs don't work on me and I'm allergic to naproxen. I'm scared of becoming addicted to opioids because they seem to be the only thing that helps but I've already gotten 2 prescriptions of them and I'm curren

This is more of a rant I guess. I've been struggling with pain for over a decade now, and no matter how bad it gets, I'm given naproxen or acetaminophen. Naproxen doesn't work for me, and it requires high doses of acetaminophen for me to get a small amount of relief. But they are still the only pai

Had a flare up today and usually when this happens I can’t walk. I usually end up in the ER because when I call my doctor I always get “we can’t help you unless you come in” Ma’am you diagnosed me and all I need is a steroid pack and some naproxen to reduce swelling. So when I was finally mobile eno

one more time. I’m going to scream. Anyone with me?

I have chronic pain along with fatigue and other issues and a majority of my pills are for my pain my doctors are trying me on so much before actually giving me anything to relieve the pain. I asked for 500mg naproxen and was given a muscle relaxer to take 3 times a day i’m up to at least 12 pills a

Hey everyone! I’ve been seeing a lot of posts lately in this sub and in others about people asking for little things that help manage the pain, so I thought I’d compile a list of stuff that helps me and others can tack on what helps them in the comments. I hope someone finds this useful! - **Prescri

For context: for pretty much all of last year over 80% of my body was covered in eczema rash. It was so severe I couldn't use the shower and had to either take baths or wash myself in the sink. My scalp was constantly peeling and I was *always* itchy. While my skin would get better in summer, it was

Hey everyone! I just wanted to provide some sort of update having been on Upadacitinib for just over a month. My eczema is gone and I no longer need to take cold showers and I don't even need to moisturise after showers. My skin looks healthy and clear it is so surreal. This medication is not a ste

I am interested in participating in a clinical trial. I am leaning towards the 3 mentioned in the title, though I would love to hear about any others that seem promising. I am hoping there will be phase 3 trials in my area some time in the first half of 2018 for ABT-494 and PF-04965842. Phase 3 for

About 80% of my body was covered when I went to the dermatologist, so he sent me to hospital for inpatient treatment for 5 days. I did a paraffin bath -> topical steroid -> wet wrap -> emollient treatment twice a day and everything has cleared up. I've been given a metric tonne of moisturiz

Almost a year ago, after years of worsening Atopic Dermatitis, i said enough is enough, and decided to buy Upadacitinib, a JAK inhibitor originally used for rheumatoid arthritis, after reading about very promising clinical trials for AD. When i posted about it many of you guys were surprised about

Hi there, I wanted to share my experience with eczema and how, in the past 1.5 years, these drugs changed my life: **Growing up and coping:** I’ve had eczema since I was six years old. It started on my elbows, ankles, and on my thigh where I had operations as a child. Around 10 or 11, it spread. I t
