I am taking Rumoquin NF every 2 days. I had hip pain and lower back pain from a double level fusion done in 1982. Almost all my pain has gone. This medication is amazing. However, I am concerned about the long term side effects of using steroids. What would you recommend for someone in my situation? Thanks in advance for any feedback.
I am thinking of taking Rumoquin NF for intense arthritic foot pain. I have had surgery with bone fusion, pins and more. The Dr. states I cannot have more relief because of the extensive arthritis in my feet. I do have cortisone shots when possible. I cannot stand for more than an hour, or walk more than a few minutes due to pain, and that is with use of Percocet and Gabapentin. Will Rumoquin NF be a problem with those meds, or is it something that may help me become more mobile with the easing of my pain? I am willing to try anything that will not cause harm. Thank you.
