What Causes Dizziness And Tiredness While On Meloxicam?
Hi, I am a 48 year old healthy woman. I have recently been diagnosed with severe arthritis of the neck. I started taking meloxicam last November and immediately stopped having neck pain and so many headaches. I have been dizzy and feel extremely tired for the last couple of months. I stopped taking the meloxicam and two days ago and started using a gel called Fluticasone. I am still dizzy and really tired. I am getting so frustrated. I am unable to workout or do anything because of being dizzy! Any ideas?
