Yesterday, I phoned my doc and asked him to mail me prescription for VIOXX. I was on samples. The results have been terrific! I don't have arthritis but I have fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. I've been bothered with wrist pain even though I take prescription pain medication.

Last time I saw doc he gave a sample of VIOXX to me and it has alleviated the wrist pain. I asked the nurse if they have had good feedback, she said, "yes" although it works better for some than others. I am one of the lucky ones.

I take one 25mg tablet a day. It doesn't make me sick.

I was never able to take anti-inflammatory medication because it made me sick.

Nice to MRK and the rest of the drug sector starting to move higher. Hopefully we are past the doldrums.
