Will Reducing Meloxicam Dosage Stop Stomach Pain?

I have been on Meloxicam15 mg, 1 daily, for about 9 months. My stomach is starting to hurt mainly in the evenings. Also, my last blood tests showed my liver numbers were up. I am taking Meloxicam because of inflammation, knee replacement coming up in March. Should I stop taking Meloxicam entirely or could I just take one every other day?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if you can bear the pain without the medicine then it is better and if you can not then you could continue Meloxicam it is okay if you continue this hope this information helps.
