Sorry to hear your news, that they were treating you with the wrong pills, hope you now have the correct pills now, i bet it is what Yorklass said on gall stones, so many of my family and friends have been rushed in hospital with tremendous excruciatlng pain then diagnoised with gallstones
Get well soon, and take care
 
Good drive up from Devon, now in P'boro and heading for Whitwell later this morning. Hoping the sun we had yesterday lasts for the weekend :)

Thanks.
The ones the hospital gave me were not the right ones either. I got my results yesterday and the bacteria is only effected by 2 different types of antibiotics. so I am now on the right ones. should be all better soon.

I hope you are feeling better. x

The good news is my infection has gone. The bad is I'm still in pain. lots :( I was at A&E last night... I have moments where it's just a dull ache and not too bad then I have moments (I call them attacks) where it's unbearable. Yesterday afternoon I was attacking so much I couldn't stand it any longer. Phil called the doctors and I was given stronger painkillers, but they didn't work, I was still in so much pain. At A&E they have come to the conclusion I have kidney stones, but can't say 100% until I have a scan which I've already been put on a list for 3 days ago. it takes 2-4 weeks to get a scan so that's frustrated me a lot. They said my blood showed my kidney function was normal so they can not do anything about it faster than that. (glad my blood was normal but grrrr already 3 weeks into this pain) I was given something stronger for the pain, but only 1 and told to give my doctors a ring today to get a prescription for oral morphine and these stronger meds.

so that's me... how's everyone else?
 
Get morphine from your GP Tes, you shouldn't have to suffer while you wait for a diagnosis.

We're back to normal, Mum's home with us and grumbling away as usual :Very_sad_emoji_icon

 
No one wants to use morphine, but when you're in so much pain you just have to go with it.
Hope you feel more comfortable.

Mum's not so glad to be home, that she's giving you a bit of peace then Chris.

Aw Tes, I'm so sad you're going through all this, especially so soon after losing your lovely Dad. More than your fair share methinks, so huge hugs to you my lovely.

Definitely go with the oral morphine. I had it when I had my hip replaced and it worked well in combination with the tablet painkillers. It works fast, so gives you some relief while the other pain meds kick in, plus it's a great top-up in between tablet doses. Non-addictive, so no guilt tripping! I'm sure I'm preaching to the very well-informed converted but it's better and easier to steadily keep on top of pain with regular doses than it is to banish it in the first place. Even if you're feeling comparatively pain free, keep up with the meds because once the pain gets the better of you again, it's harder to get back on top of it. It was years before I learnt that! Chin up lass xxxx
 
I just heard on the radio that with every stamp we lick, we're consuming one-tenth of a calorie... no wonder we all gain weight at C-word time:b0234:

I am going to start a rumour that emails are better because they are less calories :)

Okaaaaay... but the stamped thingies then have to get to the nearest post box, so that's possibly burning off more calories than gained? It's a dilemma...
I know!! We need a diet expert to work this out for us. Wonder where on earth we can find someone who's on a diet and losing lots of weight in a very clever scientific way? :Nerd_with_Glasses_E
 
Does it burn more calories typing quickly or slowly, what about lifting eyes up and down if you don't touch type and of corse, backspacing and retyping typos??? :)

Hmmm yes, another thing to be factored into the equation. Can't count the eye lifting thing for me because I do touch type quite quickly... last civil service typing test I passed was at 90wpm but that was many many moons and suns and jobs ago! I do indeed expend a huge number of calories these days on the whole backspace, delete, retype thing though :rolleyes: How did you guess... is my webcam on? :O Extra calories too for constantly pushing glasses back up the nose and hair out of eyes, so emails could be nudging ahead...

Ah but I've just remembered all the energy it takes to lift a pen and make those strange ancient squiggles called writing on the page and envelope of a card or letter... pretty sure that offsets the stamp licking calories :p

Well I didn't want to mention it but last stamps I bought (maybe 10 years ago) you didn't lick, they were self adhesive. Didn't want that to get in the way of the thread though :)
