Experimenting with 1 Aleve and 1 enteric aspirin

[XanaDUer2]

For daily mild headache post covid.


It's frustrating and scary. Can feel one trying to form now

1. I feel you may already know this but

be careful as both of those are blood thinners. 1 Aleve every 12 hours is the rule.

4. Didn't know about Aleve

Just started this today. May move to ibuprofen

7. I was on Aleve after open heart surgery for a while.

Then my doctor took me off of it and put me on coumadin. I believe Aleve is made by Bayer. Just be careful with it.

Aleve is the best pain medication.

8. Will do

Headache not quite formed yet today. Really concerned about this being ongoing. God knows what would happen had I not been vaccinated and boostered

9. I have terrible arthritis in a previously broken shoulder.

A shoulder replacement is no doubt in my future. I agree with you. Aleve works the best.

10. Some...

Like me, cannot tolerate Aleve at al so do monitor your stomach carefully. I experienced acute digestive upset and gut pain from it. It doesn't go well with a lot of other meds, I knew one friend who was on several meds, was bullied into taking naproxin sodium (Aleve) and it nearly killed him in a few days. Ibuprofen might be safer.

2. I'm going to go all retired health care worker and ask, your Doctor know?

We do not want to lose you

5. Thank you

It's been a few days, but I'm going to have a telehealth with him.

3. I take Ibuprofen for my post COVID headaches...

... 3 tablets when I wake up and then at bedtime everyday. But, Ibuprofen is also a muscle relaxant.. Also, helps me fall asleep. I am not a doctor, but have been dealing with long haul COVID symptoms for a while. Good luck to you.

6. Are your headaches bad?

These seem mild, but scare me. I may try ibuprofen.

13. Not bad...

... But, I never had headaches before... So they are noticiceable and distracting.

[XanaDUer2]

14. I'm sorry

I did get them, but rarely. Now every afternoon

11. another friend...

Not the one mentioned above, was having post covid issues and she started taking iodine and potassium (potassium phosphate) and she said it really helps to relieve those problems.

[XanaDUer2]

12. I need to try that

I'm so sick of this it started a few days ago I went to the beach and didn't get one last weekend
