Anti inflammatory pain killers
Last year I developed back and tendon issues with severe sciatica. Apart from a cortisone injection in my back that I had sourced privately the only help I received from GP and consultant was to take anti inflammatory pain killers like Ibruprofen, Namoxen etc. I took their advice against my better judgement

A little insight would be wonderful. I’m new here!
I am 47 years old and was never formally diagnosed with ADHD. My brother was as a child and I always thought I was also. When I was 28 I entered nursing school and for the first time I couldn’t half-ass my way through school, I had to really study. I found it difficult to concentrate and take in all

Dry socket after upper wisdom tooth extraction?
Hi there! I had a bottom wisdom tooth extracted in November. I am allergic to codiene so when I got dry socket, all I could take was paracetemol and ibuprofen. The dentist couldn't offer me any pain relief medication and my doctor's office basically just thought I was scamming them for painkillers when

First gynea appointment and laparoscopy
First appointment went really well with my gynecologist, she did a quick internal exam to check tenderness. She said she will send me for further testing to see if anything has changed since my last scans. She will see me again in 3 months to discuss the scan results and make the decision to go ahead

Nothing to worry about
Hi I had this process in January and honestly didn’t feel a thing. Half hour afterwards I was sat up reading a gardening magazine and I never took a single painkiller. It’s fine, the few weeks after a bit of a trial as you have to take loads of drops and wear an eye shield at night.

Pain killers or not? Perplexed.
Hi, I have a dumb question. It's 3.5 weeks since my diagnostic laparoscopy, so I think the incision points are more or less healed. The consultant told me there was too much work to do in one day surgery session & needed an MRI and multi-discipline team to look at results. I was feeling virtuous, not
