i have a few other things wrong with me but prob take about the same, every time i open my mouth and say anything to the doctor he sticks another different tablet in it, years ago a dif doc took me of one of my tablets after two months as he said it done that much damage to your liver etc, this doctor has been giving it to me for four years and hasn't said one thing maybe a wee bit of dr harold shipman aobut him, have had about six doctors in five six years all done things differently i'm saving up to go to a private doc for a consultation as a friend of mine did and the private doc went mad and said half of the medication she was on actually was making her worse, you can't really blame the doctors as they have no proper time with anyone these days its the nhs they have to get you in and out asap, i the last time i spoke to the doctor took myself of some tablets because i knew myself they were doing nothing. xxx

A lot of these tablets are opiates and opioids. Like Diazepam, Tramadol, Pethedin, Co dydramol, Temazepam, Clonazepam, etc etc. As well as the Matifen patches. Ive been told Im on full dose of everything. If I have an attack, like I did the other week, I have nowhere to go!!!!! I will need Psychiactric help and Methadone to ome off them xxx
