ibuprofen, linux mint
The high dose ibuprofen didn't have a noticeable effect on my teeth/bite issue. But I still think it could possibly be due to tense muscles; that still makes sense to me. So I will wait and see a while longer.
The ibuprofen didn't have any noticeable effect on my stiff fingers/hands issue either. I suspect that ibuprofen just doesn't work well on me; maybe it's something genetic.
The ibuprofen did cause my ankles to swell, however. I could barely see the ankle bumps on the inner side of my feet anymore. Oddly, that didn't happen until the day after I stopped taking it. It probably would have happened whether I continued taking it or not. It took 4 days for my ankles to go back to normal.

I burned Linux Mint onto a DVD, to try out on my old laptop. It takes quite a while to start up, but runs pretty good once it's up. I think I'll install it to the hard drive. I'm wondering if there's a special way I ought to do that, to be able to try out and/or install other O/S's too.
My brother left 3 computers boxed up amongst his stuff in the garage. He said I could get rid of them after clearing off the hard drives. They're over 9 years old, with WinXP. For the 2 I've looked at so far, I had to replace the motherboard button batteries, so they would even boot. I learned some things about IDE hard drive cables and connections in the process. I'm going to put Linux on one of those computers too, so my sister and niece can use it while they are at my place.
