Hi everyone,
Had a bad day today-Had to go doctors and dentist :eek:
Turns out I have a UTI, yuk and an infection under my wisdom tooth.
Now the doc has given me 2 lots of antibiotics one which I have always had in the past for UTIs and which have got rid of them no probs.Will also clear up the tooth infection, but she has also given me another lot to take on top of those which wait for it....make you violently sick if you so much as sniff alcohol....even for 3 days after finishing the course which will take me up to 10 days :eek: My face must have been a picture...I just grabbed the prescription and scurried out cursing under my breath!
Now the question is do I just take the one lot that ive always had before or do I take both
Have started off with the one lot whilst I mull it over.
I know no one on here can give medical advise and I know what I should do really....but 10 days :eek:
Happy birthday to the birthday peeps, hope your having good days x

31 what ?........... I don't drink
Of course I'm going for 31 :j:j
Bit down now / tonight .... Have just had to shoot the little goat as it was fitting. Mrs BHB could not get it well I'm afraid. Its been going downhill all day. So Mrs BHB is in tears and I'm a bit sad. At least she gave it a chance for a few days. Still, she's not suffering now.
Anyway - I haven't gone to Tescos to get some Stella - so that's a good thing. A bit of improvement hey?
Hope everyone is having a better evening than me.
Best Wishes
BHB xxEmbrace your inner Hillbilly

Bhb hugs to you and Mrs Bhb and I am so sorry to hear about your little goat. Mrs Bhb sounds so caring and can you please give her a big hug.
But yes at least you did give it a chance and that is all anyone can do.
I don't like to think of you both down, so please take care and so well done on your af achievements. I am so proud of you and well done on going for 31 in May. You have made a wonderfully big improvement and you should be so very proud of yourself, I know everyone on here is.
Take care matey and lots of love to you and Mrs Bhb
