phil,hope you get better fast.if your doc prescribed an n-said(non steroidal anti-inflamatory) drug you should take it with something in your stomach,these things can wreck your stomach lining.not being a know it all,but i did stay at a holiday inn express last night.....no i mean i am a nurse. and i have see this happen many times.if you are not sure what your med is feel free to pm me and i will tell you what i know about it.good luck,jim
