........ of these flaming painkillers the quack has given me - am fed up constant gastric pains etc - as of tomorrow I am back on Nurofen Plus - cos the others weren't killing the pain completely anyways :O((

Anne make sure you tell Dr about the side effect in case he later gives you something else with similar ingredients, I have one sort of painkiller that sends me high as a kite.

Well make sue you go back to the quacks hun to get it sorted (((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))) Jax xx

It doesn't surprise me to hear that, Anne, after all the trouble you've had with them. Wish you better. x

Dawn & Jax - i will, promise :O) Glenys - thanks - i have a weak constitution at the best of times - i can't be doing with all this 'dashing' and stuff lolol

I ADMIT SOME SIDE EFFECTS ARE WORSE THAN ILLNESS YOU GAVE IT A GOOD BASH XXXXXXXXXXXX

*wags finger at Anne to take it easy* x

Anne your not gonna make me become a nag again are you! You know I do it soooooooooooooo well. d xx

No Dawn I'm not lol I will be back there in 3 weeks if not sooner and I will tell him xxx

Marks reminder in diary for 3 weeks time to make sure Anne has told them. d xx

Deja vu !!!! **eek** *tuts lol*

Three weeks??? Make an appointment sooner, THAT IS AN ORDER!!!!!! I'm going to be busy over the next couple of weeks but Dawn has my email addy so if you dinny get it sorted she can email me and I'll come an mither you ;-ppp

Julie 3 weeks is when I am due back re my other meds ....... in the meantime I will continue with what I was taking before for my hip - I never asked him for a script for the hip pain he just gave it lol

so if he just gave you a hammer and told you to hit yourself would you not go back and say it hurt Ive stopped doing it????????????????????????????????????????????

Then he obviously thinks you need it. I still say make an earlier appointment and then he can give you something else.

Oooooooh !!! I never asked him for the tabs !! I was doing all right taking nurofen. I just asked him to look see which hip i had it in last time and next thing I know I have a prescription!! I can manage with nurofen - and they don't cost £7 either lolol

What were you taking Anne?

anne matey, just got up for a wee, but i'm sure you didn't want to know that :o) most painkillers will upset your tummy, if given a strong dose, only nurofen, and paracetamol will help the pain without the side affects, please go to your doctor sooner rather than later, it's silly suffering in silence, you pay your doctor his / her wages, so you call the tune, not them, remember they are a general practioner, ' master of none '.... bryan.

Hi Bryan, too much info my friend, is your computer in the loo? lol I think Anne is fed up paying for a prescription that isn't doing any good and thinks if she goes back it will mean yet another cost for different pills and it is more expensive than buying the Nurofen! Might be wrong, but got that impression a while ago. I have been on voltarol -well, cheaper equivalent - and they haven't been a problem, they are for my fm and my shoulder, I usually only take them occasionally for the fm but have thad to do three a day because of the pain in my shoulder, still isn't totally right.

Hi Liz & Bryan Liz - he gave me Diclofenac - and you are spot on - I can't afford to keep shelling out £7 on more prescriptions - especially when the drugs don't suit - like I have said before, you can't take the stuff back and get a refund :O(
