Suggest Ways To Manage Arthritis Pain Post Gastric Bypass Surgery

I have chronic arthritis and have been on Reliflex for a while. I had a gastric bypass in march and have now developed Acute jejunal ulceration and had to stop the Reliflex. is there anything else I can take. I was prescribed pain killers but don t want to use a lot of Paracetamol as surely this is heavy on the stomach too. The pain gets really bad and I find it difficult to use my hands on occasions. Thanks

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the ulcerative condition developed then it is better to avoid analgesic and PPI "Tab Omeprazole 40 mg" once in day can be tried for the pain try to bear it as hard as you could then you would get natural analgesic effect hope this information helps.
