Re: Carers under 30...

Was just thinking of you @outlander, had a call from my sis , turns out Mum donated all but 3 pairs of her undies to a charity (not dignity bags but a similar type program). Yikes.

Will be up for roughly an hour, so can keep you company .

Re: Carers under 30...

Re: Carers under 30...

@outlander, Mum says she only needs 3 pairs, one on, one in draw and one in the wash 😀. Despite Mum's protests, Sis did get onto it and they have got her some more.

Are your gums sore again too?

Re: Carers under 30...

Cheeky lady @Former-Member im glad shes got some more though. Washing everyday would be annoying.

Yeah my teeth, gums, jaw, neck and really tender glands and earache happening the past day or so but feeling it alot more today

Do pain meds help a bit @outlander?

In response to: Re: Carers under 30...

Re: Carers under 30...

A little bit @Former-Member ive taken some of the otc pain relief but its not really helping much. I took it over an hr ago ao it shouldve been working by now. Might have to see the doc and see if she will prescribe something a little stronger...

Do strong pain meds mess with your emotions @outlander? Mr D had terrible trouble and could not tolerate them.

Re: Carers under 30...

Hmm i dont usually stay in them to long and really only take them for a day or 2 to help get the pain under control so i guess i cant say if it affects my mood to an extreme extent. My mood does drop abit though when on them though because it makes me more lethargic and just an unwell sort of feeling. @Former-Member

How were they affecting Mr D?

Re: Carers under 30...

He was howling that loudly I was thankful we don't have close neighbours @outlander

Re: Carers under 30...

Oh dear how awful. no they dont affect me that way thankfully. Usually its more physical like an upset stomach/nausea and tiredness, delayed reactions sort of thing more than anything. @Former-Member
