Thanks everyone. You kind thoughts and comments are really appreciated.

People at Kings were fab.

Lady who helped picked me up and all stuff billowing everywhere was especially fab.


Right ankle 5 or 6 double stiches (I was too wimpy to watch) are killing me despite the nurofen. I hadnt appreciated how painful it would be until the adrenalin reduced and local anesthetic subsided. Apparently I was very lucky with tendons and artery.


Hobbling to work I REALLY have a sense for how useful dropped kerbs and accessible public transport are.


So you'll all be glad to hear I wont be knocking on your door for a week or so. But I will be phoning people to see what's bothering them.

Paracetamol is good and you can take in between doses of ibruprofen .


Don't only take pain killers when you can't bear it any longer ,take them regularly .


If it's really bad and stopping you sleeping ,phone your GP for and discuss stronger pain killers .

And take prunes with them if something stronger prescribed as so many are very constipating .


Edit - gosh I sound bossy and a right know it all .Sorry ,but it's horrid to be in pain and so many of us soldier on when sometimes I think it could be fairly easily better controlled .


wishing you pain free soon .

Those are the ones they only allow you to use for 3 days :)


King's gave me Tramadol to take home after an Op - was very good.

xxxxxxx


You can buy paracetamol and codeine over the counter at any pharmacy, so I doubt there's a three day limit on taking it (though from memory there's a warning on the packet that codeine can be addictive).


There is a stronger version which you can only get on prescription.

    • I think you need to get a grip
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.   
    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
