Looking for an idea of what people are taking for their pain, esp. joint pain?

i have taken everything from vicoden to percoset to morphine. unfortunately, none of them helped. most of my pain is neurolgical though. if you have joint pain, i am sure something will be able to help. maybe low dose percs (keep your head on, they get very addicting) good luck!

My son who is 11 has terrible joint and muscle pain. He recently started Flexeril and Plaquenil and is beginning to have some relief. Worth a try.

Well I was just dignosed so my info is not from years of experience but after suffering over the last 4 weeks I will tell you what I have been given for pain.
NSAID- Piroxicam Has been great
Tramadol- totally relieved much pain, non narcotic, can cause some nausea, can't take with certain meds and seizure disorders

Vicodin is the only thing that gives my daughter relief. She really holds out and tries to be tough. She takes about one a day.
