Is it worth continuing with this?
I have an all on Four implant retained full bridge replacing my top teeth. My dentist recommended I use Bluem toothpaste and mouthwash as it is oxygenated and doesn’t contain flouride. I don’t particularly like the toothpaste as most of it seems to either fall off the brush or stick to my teeth. It’s also only available…

how do I find NHS dentist??
I want to register with a dentist and have a check up. I have looked on NHs website to find dentists. But none of them accept NHs patients... I have called now 20 different dentists and NONE of them take new patients, they all say I need to pay privately. I just don't understand it. I pay my taxes for the NHS. And I'm…

Anyone doing a dry January 2020? - join me!
Hello there! Is anyone else out there doing attempting a dry January this year? I'd like to go for it but have not found anyone in my circle of friends to join.

Prescription penalty charge
Hi, I have had a prepayment card for prescriptions for over 20 years. It always renews automatically. Today I received a penalty so I rang them to find out why. It seems that I was sent a letter in July 2019 about something to do with renewing it as I turned 60 last week. I did not receive a letter and actually rang up to…

Which is the best private healthcare?
Hello I had a severe chest infection and my GP required an x-ray urgently. The hospital said the results will be ready in 1-4 weeks! The attitude I got from the GP secretaries was "that's how NHS works, cancer patients wait 2 weeks for their x-ray". It seems people survive by pure luck with NHS. The less lucky go early and…

Specsavers giving me display frames
Hi I'm a bit of a fuss pot when it comes to new things like my glasses. I was slightly dismayed to learn that my local Specsavers have given me the original frames I tried on. I thought, stupidly I suppose, that I'd be given a new pair and the subsequent adjustments would have been done on the day I rang to check and as…

Worried about new form of acne
Hello, I had acne 4-5 years ago and went on roaccutane/accutane for 6 months and it all cleared up. Cut forward to 5 years later and I've started getting a few cystic type spots (not little yellow heads) on my face again, but this isn't the worst of it.

Specsavers vs online
Hi I'm due to go to specsavers for my yearly (due to a family history of glaucoma) eye test. I've been lucky the last few years in that my prescription hasn't changed that much.

What clothing brand starts with letter e and ends in d?
I have a dress and the clothing label brand has been removed and i'm wondering which brand it is. It starts with the letter e in small case and looks like it ends with a d. Judging from the size of the e and d i'd guess the length of it is on the longer side about 8-10 characters, not the shorter side 3 or 4. Any guesses…
