She doesn't take it every day. Only when the arthritis gets too difficult to deal with.
That should answer both littlek and Green Witch in one fell swoop.
And you are very welcome, Green Witch.
oh, ok. otherwise she'd be a big walking ibuprofen.
That's what I was hoping, Gus!

I know aspirin will do such a thing, but I'm not sure about ibuprofren.
Ibuprofen, asperin, tylenol - they all are hard on the body in their own ways.
True, but we were talking about stomach bleeding.
Then I'll leave ya to it....
Don't be upset, littlek. It's over now.
Here are the facts from the Mayo clinic:

Interesting. Thanks, GW. (I've always said that littlek knew what the hell she was talking about)
I sing your praises all of the time, littlek.
arthritis
gw : i have age-related arthritis - mainly in hip joints .
doctor started me on six tylenol a day (extentabs 650 mg) a year ago .
i usually manage on four a day now .
i know that tylenol may have some side-effects, but would i want to live with the pain and discomfort of arthritis for the rest of my life ?
tylenol works for me .
hope you find some relief ! hbg
