    If you need an anti-dote, you can't wait until the time you would be due to take the next dose.

    In any caae, have taken advice now, and i am to stick with them for another 48 hours unless it worsens, and if it doesn't improve back to the drawing board.

    You speak for yourself .... I've got my leg up and resting....
    :)
    I'm walking nowhere. I just measured a distance, wondering if I should catch the last bus down to the ferry to watch the boats until the last bus returns this way, I figured I'd be sitting there an hour.... but the buses are very flakey/unreliable and so I measured the distance to see if I could be 4rsed to walk back if the last bus never appeared and it got cold and dark... and I decided I don't do walking today :)

    So put me down as just the wounded.

    Who did you get advice from LIR? Please tell us it was your GP or Consultant, someone who has a good knowledge of your condition and history.

    I on the other hand have new different infection, saw a GP this morning and have a new prescription of anti-bugs. I hate being sickly, I keep going (work & life) but I am soo slow and tired, with new bits to moan about. We go on holiday in under 3 weeks and I would like to be well for that.

    Mr S has gone off on his trip. If he travelled today he was with 3 others so decided it was better than travelling alone later in the week.

    Dr Silvercar as you suggested Mr S 'took' a large dose of Rioja last night and that helped. He is having a quiet night and more 'medicine' in his hotel tonight.

    Sorry to hear everyone is falling to bits. I, for once, am relatively ache and pain free, so perhaps imagining me going on about it in a smug way will make you feel better.

    Mrs chewie is off to a wedding in Italy for 5 days tomorrow. Woohooo! I'm not going to tidy anything up for a week and ham sandwiches for every meal!! So excited.

I am picking on the next lot fropm the dispensary manager to orrow or wednesday so i will double check with her. She is SUPER nice, i noticed while i was waiting for gp appts that all the patients were chatting wi her and she knew the names of all of their families etc.

    PN - grand designs on channel 139 now is about a Cornish silver mine - you might be interested. Bloke is quite annoying though.

    To be fair, it is my turn really .... I've had a lifetime of nothing really every wrong with me. No colds, never had flu, never broken anything, never stayed in a hospital (wasn't even born in one), most things disappear on their own, no headaches, no worries.... then I started aging :)
