    No-one on hear can give you medical advice so I recommend asking your doctor.

    How does it feel to be 19?

    You're so bold Mr Tut! Lol.

    Man just got out of a ridiculously boring training session and I just can't wake up again. I did that thing where I kept closing my eyes etc and suddenly I jerked awake so everyone noticed! lol.

    Maybe she can....

    I have only had to take tablets once and it said to keep taking them (at the rate shown on the instructions) until they were all gone. Something to do with you thinking you might be better but not being etc...

    Anyway that is what I was told :) but like I say don't know what other people do...my first time in a hosp was about 2 years ago :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,671 ✭✭✭Blitzkrieger


    is it okay to use them after today when i get sore?

    No - they expire.

    There's a rumour that the drug companies only say they expire because they want you to buy more, and that they'd be fine, but I wouldn't take the chance myself.

    Besides, if I'm in enough pain to need pills, I'm going to see a doctor...

    That's just with anti-biotics. Obviously if you think the pain is gone and it ain't - have another pill :)

    I mean to use them over the next few days if im in pain, they'd hardly expire in a weeks time?

    Good girl, back from hols and as dark as a .. tanned person... :rolleyes::o

    Dose that you're sick again! Plus if they're anti-biotics I'm pretty sure you should finish the course, otherwise all the good work you've put in will all be undone!

    ok so after surgery people get a prescription for like 10 days but as you said there was no point in taking them if you didnt have pain. So yes its fine to take them when you get sore... (obviously dont take them all together!) As a matter of interest are you still having lots of pain? how many days after the surgery are you?

    Surgery Thursday eveningat like 8, they wanted to discharge me Friday morning but I genuinely wasn't able to head home so came home Saturday morning so 6 days after surgery now.

    The pain varies, sometimes it's really dreadful and others it's as though im nearl fully recovered, like yesterday afternoon i felt realy good, so i chanced going for a spin, but i was home in bed by 10 crying myself to sleep in pain.

    ok well you seem to be doing good but just dont overdo it either...like its great to be getting up and moving but dont chance doing too much... i say become friends with your tv and garden for a couple of days... and just take the painkillers when you feel that bad but if it is really that severe then you need to go to your doctors to get something stronger. And definately if the pain is that bad come thurs or fri then go to your doctor... it shouldn't be so severe a week after the surgery.
