Addictive drugs
Many years ago, when I found paracetamol was not always sufficient to give me relief from pain, my GP prescribed codeine. To be taken as and when required with a maximum of 4 a day. Since then my GP has changed and he seems to be telling me to take 4 each day at regular intervals, as the previous instructions

Struggling coming off ropinerole
First thank you for all the replies to my earlier posts, before my second hip replacement. 4 weeks post surgery I am decreasing ropinerole slowly, just dropped from 0.75mg to 0.5mg after 2 weeks on 0.75mg. But struggling with symptoms starting early afternoon and getting worse as the evening progressed

I need some advice please. I am currently on 300mg of pregabalin and one codeine tablet a day but this has stopped working.

After about a year though. The frequency and severity of the attacks increased manyfold and was now causing
