Co-codamol

Hey everyone, As mentioned previously, my mum is awaiting radiotherapy and has decided to go ahead. She has had a horrendous cough now for nine weeks and had numerous courses of anti biotics, which cannot be great. She is currently taken her third course of cotrimoxazole, which have not done much.

Has anyone been prescribed this and how did you get on with it? My husband had this prescribed to deal with a stubborn bacterial infection and took 2 x twice daily. He was given 2 months supply but after 6 weeks started to feel nauseous. Have now had to stop this medication and have a hospital follow

• Difficulty focusing on uni • Not enough energy to continue with volunteering • Not enough energy or in too much pain to: cook, shower, go to my allotment, get out of the house, cleaning • Mood - increase in depression, anxiety and irritability • Frequent use of otc meds: paracetamol, ibubruphen, co-codamol

Diagnosed in 2015 and put on 20mg of Pred. Last year moved to Scotland where Rheumatologists do not deal with PMR they leave it to GP. I have lowered my dose of Pred to 4.5 . Since last Xmas I have been suffering with a trapped nerve in my back giving me pain in my left thigh like sciatica. The Dr

Hi, I’m 11 months into my 15 month treatment for CLL. I’m on Ibrutinib with Venetoclax and it’s suited me well, and I’m really pleased that my bloods now appear to be normal. I’m also on Co-Trimoxazole antibiotic and Aciclovir antiviral to deal with any infections should they arise during my treatment

My gp has also prescribed Co-dydramol, which works so much better than Co-codamol and Morphine. It does make me really constipated (I am anyway!) though. They all come with side effects 🥹

My husband, who has bronchiectasis has developed a bad cough, which is mostly dry unlike his usual cough. He has used his usual inhalers and nebuliser but nothing is helping. It’s making him nauseous, He is on a high dose of Co-Trimoxazole to fight bacteria in but has not a chest infection.Has anyone

I had requested my Dr to increase my dosage of opioid which he did and this has gone from 8 tablets of Co-dydramol 10mg dihydrocodeine tartrate with 500 mg of paracetamol to 8 tablets of Co-codamol, 15mg.Codeine Phosphate hernihydrate with 500 mg of paracetamol per day.

He also dropped my steroids down to ten, I am in agony and currently signed off work, taking co-codamol to try and get through each day. So, the appointment is tomorrow, what can I expect? I am nervous.

However back on normal meds co- codamol, Metformin ‘ lisinopril andRosivasttin. Since 25/4have had continuous UTI symptoms told +++ leukocytes and blood everything else abnormal but expected.

Is there a better painkiller than co-codamol. I've just had another pain as i type. Why won't it leave me alone. I'm menapausol now, so why do i still have Endo????. Any answers most welcome, i just feel so alone with it sometimes

After waiting a year I had my steroid injection 3 weeks ago and so far no improvement in my walking so back to taking co codamol/paracetamol 8/500 mg. Has anyone else had the injection and if so was it successful?

Afterwards was taking time to fully recover, early March 2023, started experiencing pain in my right shoulder, doctor diagnosed strained rotator cuff, put onto co-codamol 30/500 for pain relief and exercise regime.

The only pain relief I’d had was a couple of Co-codamol taken a bit earlier, and it was real agony. Imagine if the prostrate biopsy was done without anaesthetic and each grab lasted a second or two rather then being an instant. Ouch!!!

Hope you are all keeping well. Since I last posted I have had two medical anniversaries. First the metal plate and screws on my left femur had been there for sixteen years, and secondly it was seven years since my first angina attack. To celebrate I had a fall and managed to damage the tendons in my

Paracetamol and ibuprofen does nothing for me, most of the time co-codamol doesn’t but if it does has to be a double dose of 8mg or a solpadeine 12mg (doesn’t help with the nausea much either!).
