I so agree with you, @gardeningjunkie, I take a NSAID everyday (one Advil) at bedtime and it is a life saver. I've had three digestive tract surgeries and my GI specialists cringe when I talk about my one Advil each day, but I know that nothing gives relief quite as well. For me, taking it a night gives me much more restful sleep and I wake up with less stiffness (yes I could probably do a commercial for all NSAIDs).

Teresa- After a day of gardening I was forced to take Aleve, yet I cut in half and was amazed it worked just the same as the full strength. The pain relief after the 24 hours, although not as complete, was still present for another day. That was a week ago and haven't taken on since. Your digestive tract issues sure could be related to your Nsaids so I understand why your GI doc is concerned. Have you tried experimenting with half to cut down on the negative side effects? I am also now wondering if 1/2 helped, could I take 1/4?
