I am on the on who was prescribed Vimovo after going to the walk-in clinic. Though I did get a bit of a relief it wasn't good. Both my wrists and hands were swollen and painful.
Went to the emergency last night, ER doctor prescribed Prednisone for 5 days which is a steroid to help with the swelling. He then advised me to follow this up with my family doctor as soon possible. Prednisone did help with the swelling, and today I almost feel like a normal person who could use one's hand normally.
This morning went to the family doctor, he asked me to get immediate blood work done to find out the exact cause and I went straight to the lab from the doctor's office. Doctor asked me to stay on Vimovo and Prednisone for the next 5 days.
Hope my test results are normal. Keeping my fingers crossed.
