    Hi Val,

    This is a good idea actually cus sometimes its hard to remember what folks have.

    Mine is advanced oa in most the body, pa in whats left as well as doubling up with the oa to work against each other at every available possibility :lol:

    I 'might' have fibro and CPS as well as some possibility of another inflammatory but we don;t bother as to what that might be either :lol:

    tablets... oh Val I have a few. For the arthritis its just mtx (25ml jabs)m folic acid, 300x 2 pregabalin, 2x 4 tramadol and 2 x 2 oxynrms as well as the lignocaine patches and numerous drugs and intervention from the pain clinic.

    I have a few other things and for them I also take the nexuin 40 x2, Losartan 50 mg, stemili 2 x 4, 2 other stomach tablets the names I forget but one is dom something or another the other is something beginning with m. I also take another anti-emetic beginning with an m but when I have the rip (iloprost) thats changes to one beginning with O. Oh also to back it up paracetamol if needed.....

    be honest if the pegabs, trams and oxy's haven't worked I cant see the paracetamol doing much :wink:

    Hey thanks for your message.. promise I will get back to you tomorrow flower,. Your a caring soul and don;t think its not appreciated. ((((( ))))) and hopes your okish? Cris xx

    sorry Val edited some of the odd word the spell check didn't pickup :lol: I have mist in my brain and eyes not the body :lol::lol: xx

    I have RA, OA (in my neck ) Asthma and COPD
    meds 25mg injected meth, placquinil, gabapentin 600mg x3 (anymore and i think i would be sounds asleep) Remedine(paracetamol and dihyracodeine) amitryptaline, omazaprole, Lodine (nsaid ish),nefopam (more painkillers),( ventolin tablets, fexofenadine, montelukast, seretide inhaler for asthma) and another inhaler for the COPD. and movelat and nasal
    When i counted then up i got up to 170 a week and stopped.
    So my delight is getting so much out of the pre paid prescription- oh and seeing the faces on the pharmacy staff's face when i collect my overflowing bag of pills.

    I have OA in multiple joints, every finger, thumb joints (very painful!), neck, hips, ankles, big toes and just starting in my knees!!!! Doc says i have an inflammatory component, whatever that means!! Im on 10mg Methotrexate once a week followed by folic acid tablet taken 24 hours later. I just take paracetamol when pain bad. I had to stop taking any NSAIDS as that upset my stomach badly. I now have IBS which comes and goes and im sure that the NSAIDS caused that!!
    LOVE EMMA X
