A few days ago I had to stop taking Meloxicam for a procedure I had yesterday. I was told not to take it for a few more days but I decided last night to take it anyway. I was looking to see if you can have arthritis in your feet. I was very athletic all my life until I was 41. I m 57, female, a veteran at the mercy of VA medicine and I m wondering if there is any treatment or medicine that would help me more. I can t believe how much pain I m in. A few years ago I injured my left knee and a doctor, not with the VA, gave me three injections over a few weeks that worked wonders. It sounded like synovial but I know that s not the correct name. I m sorry, I can t afford to pay you. I was just checking the internet to see what s out there. Thank you.
