Meloxicam
"Arthritis in my back (L4-L5) causing extreme pain in my right hip for an hour or two after getting up in the morning.  I'd had 3 steroid injections in my back which relieved the pain for 3 - 6 months.  I was ready for another injection but instead tried meloxicam.  It's now 3 months later.  Most of the time there's no pain; occasional pain is quite tolerable.  No noticeable side effects so far."
