Meloxicam/ Crohn's

Updated

I was diagnosed with crohn’s about 6 months ago and the last month I’ve been having bad lower back pain. I recently went to a pain clinic and got prescribed meloxicam 7.5 mg 2x, Duloxetine dr 30mg, and Baclofen 10mg 3x. I’ve been having bad nausea, and still having back and stomach pain. I was wondering if anyone has been prescribed this for crohn’s pain, or can tell me what you’re prescribed for pain associated with crohns pain, Thanks!

Meloxicam is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, so it could be irritating your stomach, they are very well known for doing that. I'm not even sure why they prescribed it, if you already having stomach pain.

Did they provide anything to help with the nausea?
