Ok what is the best OTC med to use for muscle pain? I did something VERY dumb today. I was going to come on here & say how I hurt my shoulder pruning & mulching, it was so nice, I was out doing yard work all day long. Ok but honestly, when I came in for lunch there was a great old Kiss song on the radio & I just had to bang on the counter with my hands like I was playing the drums along with the song. Stop laughing. Well on the last beat I slap my palm hard onto the granite & BAM a pain shoots up my arm & into my shoulder & now it's so sore I can barely use it to type! ACK! Must...type...on....DIS...I've had trouble with this shoulder for about 2 months, I can't tell if I've torn something or it's tendonitis or arthritis or what, but it's never been bad enough to take anything. Now I need some meds but don't know what to take!! Tylenol? Aleve?? Ibuprofin??
OK....I'm not laughing "at" you., I'm laughing "with" you.
Seriously, I'd try Aleve. I hope it gets better. Hopefully, you won't have to tell a doctor how it happened.

Helene invited me over.




I think the reason we never see each other is that you work evenings, right? We'll have to set up a "meet". My friend "tiggerfan4me" lives in Temple, but she used to live in this area. We've know each other for more years than we want to admit!
Don't see anything wrong with that though!!
Well I really got them done for florida but it's all good. We are gonna head to my sister's house tomorrow ( she lives down towards the Allentown airport) so we do't have to get up as early for our 8:30am flight on Sat. I'm looking forward to meeting everyone on Thursday at our little DIS meet. Hope everyone has a great week and enjoy the sunshine. Talk to everyone soon. Terri
