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.

    • Well I did say I stand to be corrected! Fair enough, their website only seemed to list three branches. Perhaps it's a franchise model?  It's known as 'agglomeration' in economics Rookie error.
    • I didn't know there was a word for that — thanks!
    • This is just normal business behaviour. That's why there are so many coffee shops in ED and shops selling gifts and interiors stuff, clothes, restaurants.  If there's more than one business of a similar type then it can benefit all of them up to a saturation point and keep up quality. It's all sounding like many think Chango has made a malicious move when it actually sounds like it's owned by one guy who has a good business that has done well.   Anyway this is all great advertising for both empanada places. Very close by is the organic grocer who sells really good value and very tasty samosas and other Indian snacks which are also worth trying. 
    • Hello, Does this lovely little panther have a name? & Is he neutered & microchipped?
