    No thats fine.

    I have Fibromyalgia and prolapsed discs in my neck. Also my lower back has started really hurting. I am finding it hard to sit or walk at the moment.

    Have been told Morphine is my final option. I never take these decisions at face value and always do my own research. Over the next week or so I will be googleing other options.

    Morphine is good stuff :cool:

    Have you done the tramadol and such like?

    What about alternative therapies? My gp does acupuncture and it's brilliant. I had a long term headache that nothi g would shift yet within 2 hours of acupuncture it was gone :)

    Hope you manage to find a good balance :D

    Big hugs to you, enjoy that glass of wine (or bottle lol) you deserve it x x x


    Thank you.:A

    Had such a carpy day at work too .Lady boss was being a complete bee. itch. Planned a glitch trip to A then home for lunch and a rest. Best laid plans eh?
    Anyhoo, I have my glitchy stuff here (except the coke. That stayed in the car) i've had some food and I'm feeling better.
    Since there will be no evening trip to A, I'm in for an early night. Lets hope it's not too expensive at the garage.

    It's only a game

    Dear Diary What I day I've had!

    Today I have had the worst trouting ever an uber trouting.

    I will try and keep the story short.

    Taken to one side by the duty manager as sada [EMAIL="Ch@rlt0n"]Ch@rlt0n[/EMAIL].

    Then manouvered into the back room , confronted by the securirty lady who said that my legitimate voucher (£18.xx ) was fraudulent.

    They had photos of me from this morning and yesterday.

    I said its not fraudulent and advised them to check on their own site or call customer services. They refused to do either and called the Police!!!!!!!

    I called sada customer services from the Asda back room but all but the junior sv had left , sada customer services agent was horrified.
    He tried to call the store but could not get an answer. The Police arrived and asked me what it was all about. I told them to ask the Sada manager as I have not done anything wrong.

    So the Policeman disappeared along with the manager , security person and head SV. Came back 5 mins later and said sorry!

    I had told the duty manager he would have to say sorry and give me a £5 voucher at the beginning of my kidnapping.

    The Policeman was quite wry , he summed up by saying to the duty manager. So you have learned something today about your system and the he agreed ( basically saying to him ' Do you know what you are doing ?').

    Duty manager was quite humble once he found the voucher and receipt were/are valid. He gave me my shopping with no charge ( would have got it for a few pounds anyway ) and a £5 voucher ( I know I could have got more , but I didnt want more , just the regular £5 ). Said I am welcome in the shop.

    The chap from customer services rang an hour later and said the manager and security person will be spoken too.

    Manager was ok really , it was the security person that was sure my voucher was a fake. She was convinced it was a fake as it was an iphone generated voucher. They had only seen pc generated ones before. ( the iphone ones are slightly different than the pc ones , the sada logo is smaller ).( Not a nice person the security lady , thinks she's some sort of dectective)

    What convinced the manager was that he went out side and used his own iphone , input the details and up popped the voucher just as I told him it would. If he had done this in the first place it would have saved a lot of kerfuffle or if he would have spoken to his own customer services.

    Strangley I got two new receipts with glitchy items on from the free shops , I will put them in soon and see if they work.

    I doubt if this will happen to anyone else , but thought I should share as this would be traumatic for the fient hearted.

    I am fairly thick skinned and have had lots of debates with toscos sv about DTD on misprices , jtd and dtd , so I understand its all a game. But this was different!

    Definatley not under the radar now.

    Big thanks to all the contributors on here.

    So anyone in the [EMAIL="Ch@rlt0n"]Ch@rlt0n[/EMAIL] area should be able to use as many and as big vouchers as they like for a while!

    That is absolutely awful. Surely with CS having so many of the calls you would have thought they would have sent a memo to their stores.

    Thanks. I have tried most things. I went to see a chiropractor which really helped. I just can't afford it at £40 a time. I thought Morphine would make me sleepy?

    Of course she would JS, when people are experiencing times of hardship (financially or emotionally) for someone to come along and do something nice for them will give the receiving person a little ray of hope :A

    I always live by it is better to give than receive :T

    I think its half, or even 3/4 of the thrill, being able to give it away.
    My Mum loves when she gets a bag full of goodies, she has enough comfort to last the year among other things. These lovely poo's are a real treat for her, and she has a new love for 5 beans on toast.:rotfl:
    And thanks to DTD last year she gets a fancy day and night cream for birthday/xmas and mothers day, on top of her usual gifts, and will do for some years to come.
    Love your Mum, you'll never get another one when she's gone.
  • aww macawber i feel for you this would have put me off going!

    Thanks , I am OK now.

    Best thing to do when you fall off a bike is get back on stright away. I will be back tomorrow and see if they leave me alone.

    It is all part of the game , they cant work out how you spend £22 and get a voucher for £18 back. They think it must be fraud.

  • I had house viewers a couple of hours ago, the EA asked could she show them the understairs cupboard and would anything fall out, i crossed everything i could think of in the hope the weetabix mountain woudlnt topple. I didnt offer any comment :D


    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Man came to read my electric meter yesterday. I opened the airing cupboard door, and realised I'd forgotten about the loo roll mountain living in front of the meters.:o I moved some out of the way and promptly knocked over some shampoos.
    He probably thought I was some hoarder with a clean-freak streak and couldn't get out the house quick enough.
    Good job he didn't see my kitchen.(All the tops of cupboards are piled to the ceiling with cereal).

    It's only a game
