@joei777 I found Celebrex to be a pretty easy to tolerate NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) but my rheumatologist only allows short -trem use (a month or two at a time) as long-term use can cause stomach pain and (rarely) kidney damage.

The key is to take it as prescribed to tame the inflammation, don't wait for severe pain.
