Member'S Mark Ibuprofen

Has anyone else had problems with the Sam's brand of Ibuprofen? I took it everyday for about a week and my symptoms got to the point where I was almost bedridden. Didn't make the connection soon enough I guess. I've tried calling the 800 but gave up both times after being on hold for over 30 minutes. I can't find a way to contac them via email.

Not that brand, but I switched from Advil to a Rite Aid generic brand for a couple days and I was sick. I had no idea what it was. I wasnt eating gluten I was sure of it. So maybe it was that, maybe not. I also called the 800 line with no help. To be safe I went out and bought the Advil brand for next time I need it. Cant say for sure what it was, b/c I do occassionally go throught nausea spells.

It would be best to confirm it's gluten/gluten free status with the company.

I took the Member's Mark Ibuprofen yesterday and about a 1/2 later noticed swelling in my legs and face and bloating in my stomach--I went through everything I ate and there was nothing that contained Gluten. I've been running into all kinds of gluten issues with medicine...no more member's mark ibuprofen or Target brand Vitamins.

I have confirmed that Member's Mark Ibuprofen are gluten free in three ways: the list of ingredients matches the list of gluten-free excepients from the Gluten Intolerance Group's list, I called the customer service number on the bottle (they confirmed it is gluten-free), and I found another website in which a dr claims it is gluten-free.

      I'm pretty sure that in stores, you can find plenty of gluten-free options. But they are usually a bit more expensive.

      Hello @BunnyBrown and welcome to the forum. I cannot say that I have had the procedure you describe, but recently I did have general surgery and was routinely intubated.  That pain was what troubled me most after the operation, far more than the operation site.  It took a few days to really settle down, I was quite badly bruised. It was taking so long I was a bit concerned so asked the question on another forum. A few patients came back to me and said they had suffered the same.  I imagine in my own case possibly the throat got bashed about a bit,  maybe they had difficult inserting the tube?  I've suffered with a painful throat post-endoscopy too, but never as long as the intubation pain.   I hope you will be feeling better very soon.   PS BTW - love the name!  I saw this today in an Easter display in a shop and your name reminded me of it.🙂

      This wonderful, Anne. I think you have a point about why people disappear off forums.  I found the first few years post diagnosis a real struggle and frankly wondered if I would ever feel better (not to dishearten people, but just to say it can take a while longer for some folk to heal).  However, once my antibodies were back within normal range it really has made a big difference to my health.  I've chosen to stick around because I'm a Mod, otherwise I might have been one of those that disappeared, too!
