Guest guest Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 I do hope someone can offer some help!!! MY Dad 83 who is relatively healthy, recently woke with severe pain in his knee and couldn't walk for days, since he is the only driver in the household, he couldn't get to his dr. We live 80 miles away, went and took him to 24 hour emercare..where the Dr. said it was arthritis and gave him celebrex...within 48 hours the swelling had subsided with the pain>>>>BUT when he visited his regular MD...Dad was told to stop the celebrex immediately has it would effect his kidneys which aren't 100%. The pain is back Is there anything natural that he can take that will help?? I checked out some archives and celery seed seemed like a Natural alternative, but that also says, " Do not take if your have kidney trouble " I await any information that could make Dad mobil and painfree again.
