Sweetheart if it's getting worse, then maybe speaking to a Dr - even to keep them in the loop is a good idea? Maybe they can call to press how urgent it is for you to see neuro and it might get the appointment sooner?

The only contact I’ve had recently with my gp relating to pain involved them trying to take me off tapentadol. And I’m having a fight with them today to get mine and jess’s repeats sorted. I’m not trusting them with this right now.

I’ll be honest with you, having seen you in person both on your max dose and without the difference is vast! You probably didn’t notice yourself on the meds but you were so spaced it was scary. Seeing you without them you are a totally different person. Much more in control and I definitely prefer the benzo free version. That said if it helps you on occasion I would rather you had the help cos I hate to think of you suffering.

Actually, I agree. I only took it when Si told me I had to do something - and it takes a lot for him to suggest that. I haven’t taken anymore today because I need to function and will only take another in the evening if I absolutely have to.

As to saying the wrong thing, you didn’t. It seems that’s my job today ....

Paula all I can do is send you my love and a big hug

Hmm, your GP's need a kick up the derriere!

Saying the wrong thing? You? I've never known you to...

So there’s been a cock up with my repeats. The only thing (Sod’s law) that I haven’t got is venlafaxine and I run out of that today so I’d only had half my dose. Thankfully, my wonderful pharmacist gave me a weeks emergency supply - we all know what venlafaxine withdrawal is like. But it does mean I’ve been driving again and in and out of the car. So I’m sore. And ed off.

Oh bugger! Thank goodness for a lovely pharmacist! Rest now please, rest.

Am glad the pharmacist has helped hunni

Yours isn't the only surgery that misses items.....had the same experience 2 weeks ago. And they won't let you have 2 months worth either! I got "It's The Rules!!" hope you're feeling a little better today miss sparkles!

Each day my back gets a little easier, thankfully. I have actually been taking it easy and it’s working though I’m very bored lol. Still, thank god for box sets!
