So at least you’re in good company even if you’re not a hundred percent feeling great. Hope the hip issues resolve themselves. John and I can each relate completely. We are enjoying your daily updates.
Respectfully,

OK, hope you feel better. Definitely have had a lot of leg, knee, back issues, so know what it feels like to not feel good, even if you're in paradise. We do want to try out Sandbar, but will go cautious on the french fries.

Rosemary--thanks, yes I knew you would have to do that, for parking at Sandbar. Perhaps you should try to go to a doctor there and maybe get some medication, or get a massage. Or BOTH!!  I had a massage right there at Beachside a few years ago. It was pricy, but worth it!

George, I'm also a Voltaren user. You can get both regular strength (1.16%) and extra strength (2.32%) over-the-counter here in Canada.

when you get home, you might ask your doctor about that. If your BP is under control with medication, you'd probably be OK to take it, but ask your doctor.

The Voltaren (NOT Voltaire) being referred to is a topical gel.

NSAID's can elevate blood pressure but personally, I would not be concerned about using it in a topical form. The discussion made it sound like it was being used in the oral form but by the description and strength, it was the topical gel. I just wanted to clarify that and, Advil (Ibuprofen) is in the same NSAID's family so it should be a concern as well.
