Weaning off painkillers
Had hip replacement 6 weeks ago.On 1000mg paracetemol and 60mg codeine 4 times a day pain relief. Had no advice about how long I should take this medication or how to manage coming off it. Would love a drink at Christmas. How long should I be on painkillers and can I get off them this week?

Shock
Prior to this it was a challenge for him to take
paracetamol
. I feel so helpless. I don’t want to hover, and make him feel more anxious. But it’s hard. What’s the best path to follow?

September Quest Week 4
I haven’t been running at all this week, on doctor’s orders, but there’s been lots of ice/heat treatment, 3 days of ibuprofen, followed by
paracetamol
, and it seems to be working. Yesterday I could hang up the washing and do some ironing (deep joy!).

Topical Treatment for RA Joint Pain
I could try to reduce the inflammation with, say, ibuprofen, and the pain with an analgesic (
paracetamol
or codine), but given that the pain tends to be in only a couple of joints (at the moment my right wrist and right knee) I wondered whether it might be worth trying a topical anti-inflammatory (like

codeine
The meds come mixed with
paracetamol
(500 mg) as that’s the only way I can get the codeine. Thanks in advance.

Pain in right bicep approx 8-9 hrs after Pred
I can control the pain with
Paracetamol
and sleep, and when I awake in the morning ( usually 8am ish) the bicep pain has gone. Another indicator to me that the adrenals are functional, but not 100%.

4+2 but feeling awful - tonsillitis 😢 has anyone had antibiotics this early and all been ok?
I took some
paracetamol
but have been awake literally all night with pain! Went to the doctors this morning and he thinks I have tonsillitis 😢 prescribed me 10 days of antibiotics (apparently pregnancy safe). I just wondered if anyone has been in a similar boat and all been ok?

Non stop pain at 13 weeks
I was prescribed 4 x codeine a day by A&E but I’ve since read that’s bad for pregnant women so haven’t had any and have just stuck to
paracetamol
. I’m desperate to know that this pain will stop / any tips on what can help.

stage 4 endo bowel 100pc worse after Mirena coil
I’m in constant agony only relief comes from naproxen and two
paracetamol
for a few hours then I need to wait until the next dose. I feel like my own body has me hostage. I’ve never felt like this before. Consultant can’t see me now until November. How am I supposed to survive until then?

post laparoscopy recovery
The pain around my stitches I’m managing with
paracetamol
and ibruprofen if needed. But the things I’m really struggling with is when I eat or drink anything I’m feeling extremely nauseous after and having some pain with gas build up and opening my bowels and I’ve also been experiencing diarrhoea.

Non-medical pain relief in pregnancy?
I am taking token
paracetamol
and considering codeine, but am nervous about the potential risks so would rather explore non-medical options first. Has anyone found endo pain relief from treatments like reflexology, shiatsu, reiki, acupuncture etc?

I would like to hear your experience of pelvic congestion syndrome
I can only take
paracetamol
and cannot take anti inflammatory drugs because I have kidney problems and I am very sick when taking opiods. I use a Tens machine which for a very short time reduces the pain. Have you been successful in finding treatment that works to get control of the pain.?

Newly diagnosed but don’t want to take pred
I currently take ibuprofen,
paracetamol
and codeine daily despite hating pill taking but need it to get me thru the day. I think inflammatory markers are currently around 30…. so my question is, does anyone here manage their condition without meds?

Itching induced by emotional stress whilst on low dose of Pred
No pain, or if I do get discomfort in my arm as a result of sleeping on my side, it is controlled by
Paracetamol
. I’m thinking it’s Adrenal inability to meet the challenge of life and that I should be ok to continue the current taper.
