Does Vimovo Withdrawal Side Effects Cause Headaches And Nausea?

I have a torn miniscus and and I am waiting to see the surgeon since November . My GP prescribes vimovo 500 mg .I have been using it 2x a day since then. It controlled t
pain and swelling ..I have been seeing an osteopath and icing the spot and the swelling and pain is minimal so I weaned off the vimovo ..now I am having headaches and nausea. Is there a connection ...the symptom disappear as the day progresses.
Thank you !

I take no other medication , no do I have any health issues ....been a few days I wake up feeling like this ....

Vimovo is a prescritpion form of the over the counter medicine naproxen. As such it is not a narcotic and would not give narcotic withdrwal.

It could be entirely psychological or it could be there was some stomach irritation from the first exposure to naproxen.
