I've tried it and it really doesn't work for me.
 
Any alternatives?

Aleve doesn't don't squat for me either. I use either extra-strength
Tylenol or Advil; both are house brand of whatever store I buy them from.

You can give generic Naproxen Sodium a try. Too much Tylenol
(acetominofen) will kill your liver, especially if you're a drinker, and
there's not a huge difference between 'enough' and 'too much'.
 
Nothing works for me either :-(

Mea culpa. Same thing. Never mind.

I always just use aspirin.
 
Not sure if it works or not but once I take it, I start thinking of something else.

My rheumatologist says no aspirin. Not while I'm on Methotrexate.
Unfortunately aspirin is just about the best, and actually is
good for your heart.
 
Aleve seems to be working for me. I was using Tylenol but now
there is some concern about it doing bad things to your liver
when you are taking Methotrexate. Of course I also am off of
alcohol while taking Methotrexate.

Yes, you need to be careful with mixing medications. Even what we
think of as harmless painkillers that have been around since Adam
can have adverse effects when mixed with some prescriptions.

Chances are many of you have already heard.
 
"She put a check for $112 in the mailbox, someone fished it out and cashed it for $3,500"

Moral: Take it to the post office. (This is easy enough for me, anyway.) I doubt doing that is more risky than, say, online banking.

If he wins his other suit, it would be the death of retail. Or at least hinder the average person's ability to get anything done on the weekend.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/30-year-old-man-speaks-out-after-being-evicted-from-his-parents-house/ar-AAxJAV9?li=BBnb7Kz&ocid=mailsignout
 
Excerpts:
 
SYRACUSE, N.Y. – It's a case that pitted a mom and dad against their own son. The couple wanted the 30-year-old to move out of their home in upstate New York. Despite eviction notices and offers of cash, he wouldn't budge, CBS New York reports.
 
So now, a court ruling is forcing him out, and he's complaining about his parents...
 
...In the time that he's been at home, Rotondo said he's never been expected to contribute to household expenses, assist with chores or the maintenance of the property. He blames his so-called "failure to launch" on a custody battle he's been waging over his own son.
 
"I'm getting my son back, that's what I'm doing," he said.
 
But Judge Donald Greenwood agreed with mom and dad that he can do that somewhere else.
 
"I'm granting the eviction," he ruled...

First paragraphs:
 
By John Kass

It breaks my heart to say this, but the entire country is dead wrong about poor Michael Rotondo, the 30-year-old slacker living in his parents' basement.
 
You've all been horribly, stupidly and arrogantly cruel; those of you on the left who've mocked poor Rotondo for being a conservative in a bad '80s burgundy shirt, and those on the right who treated the Syracuse pajama boy as if he were the secret son of Bernie Sanders...

How many shirtless and shoeless people freeze to death each year?
 
Imagine this. A person has no shirt ot shoes. They go to Walmart or any
other clothing store to buy a shirt and some shoes, and they are refused
entry into the store, because there is a sign that reads: "NO SHIRT - NO
SHOES - NO SERVICE". They are forced to stand outside, barefooted and
topless, in deep snow and ice, while they freeze to death.
 
How many Americans must die because of that senseless sign?
 
If you dont have a shirt or shoes, and a clothing store wont let you
into their store to buy a shirt and/or shoes, how in the heck can that
person survive in weather extremes? Obviously the stores dont give a
damn about the needs of their customers. Whether that customer is rich
or poor, dont much matter, if they are not allowed to buy their much
needed shirt and shoes.
 
Worse yet, it's possibly condemning someone who just suffered a
traumatic experience. For example, they just had a major house fire and
all their belongings were destroyed, including their shirts and shoes.
Or maybe it was a tornado, hurricane or other disaster that left them
shirtless and shoeless. Now they are being punished for something they
had no control over in the first place. So instead of helping the needy,
these stores are judging and condemning them to a painful death, after
their misfortune.
 
Those stores should be held accountable, and even charged with assisted
murder, for refusing a needy paying customer.
 
This MUST change. Contact your State and Federal politicians and tell
them you've had enough of this abuse. Tell them that all stores with
those signs, should have their businesses closed until they remove the
signs and begin caring for shirtless and shoeless needy people.

No, if they checked their Social Security Statement every year they wouldn't
be high and wrong with their expected monthly benefit.

Improvements to our Privacy Policy and Privacy Controls

Google
Updating Our Privacy Policy
This month, we're updating our Privacy Policy to make it easier for you to understand what information we collect and why we collect it. We've also taken steps to improve our Privacy Checkup and other controls we provide to safeguard your data and protect your privacy.
Nothing is changing about your current settings or how your information is processed. Rather, we've improved the way we describe our practices and how we explain the options you have to update, manage, export, and delete your data.
We're making these updates as new data protection regulations come into effect in the European Union, and we're taking the opportunity to make improvements for Google users around the world.
Making our Privacy Policy easier to understand
Simpler structure & clearer language
Simpler structure & clearer language
We've improved the navigation and organization of the policy to make it easier to find what you're looking for. We've also explained our practices in more detail and with clearer language.
New descriptive videos & illustrations
New descriptive videos & illustrations
Often a visual description is easier to understand than text alone, so we've added short videos and illustrations throughout the policy.
Embedded privacy controls
Embedded privacy controls
We've made it easier to jump to key settings directly from the policy, helping you make choices about your privacy.
The revised policy is available here and will take effect on May 25, 2018.
Improving your privacy controls
Within the past year, we updated My Activity so that you can better access and manage the data in your Google Account. We also launched a redesigned Dashboard, which allows you to easily see an overview of products you're using and your data associated with them.
This month, we've updated our Privacy Checkup with new illustrations and examples to help you make more informed choices about your key privacy controls. And since we understand that your preferences may change over time, the new Privacy Checkup enables you to sign up for regular reminders to check your privacy settings.

That's probably the same way those aspiring retirees figure out what they will receive.
