    Can you get your prescriptions delivered ? Sorry to hear it wasn't a good day . 
    I normally do but this was an emergency one for a UTI. So I needed it soonest. It would have not been delivered until next week.

    I hope you slept well and the ABs are starting to have an effect. If you can tolerate them, paracetamol is good for UTI pain and discomfort.

    @beanielou I meant to say on the SW thread - I hope that your DM is feeling better and that you are in less pain today.
