well.. The whole sinus thing has returned, not that it ever really went away, but this morning my head is pounding and I've a terrible sore throat again. I finish my five day anti biotics course today, reckon it'll be back to the docs tomorrow for some more..
Oh well..
And.. I've started another bloody flare up.... :x

    same here mate. mine is tonsilitis.
    mine stayed clear for a week after finishing clarithromycin and its back again now.
    check the back of your throat with a torch to see if you have any white patches.
    its another great side effect of being on mtx. it either goes to chest infection or stays in throat and synus.

    this great weather sure isnt helping as im on another flare up as well.
    knackerd my back last week picking a box up at work so 6 days bed rest and codein and morphine help with the pain. now thats settled down everything else is flaring.

    I had two courses of anti-biotics last October to clear a throat infection, I probably should have had another week recently with the cough but I couldn't be bothered to go back to the docs. It IS miserable mate and of course a flare has started (arthritis knows how to kick a man when he's down, a woman too). I send hugs and a smidge of love. ((())) x DD

    Oh Tony, I'm so sorry you're ill again. It just isn't fair! You've had more than your share of illness and flares lately.
    Right, hold on to something secure because I'm sending you some Numpty specials!
    ((((())))). Hope they work.

    :shock: blimey...
    Wimmin overload lol...
    Thank you, every one of ya.. The hugs are gratefully accepted, if one if you can just squeeze particularly hard around the lumbar region it may help the pain.. Lol
    I find a good dose of pressure on the area eases it a little.
    I'll be on the phone at eight am tomorrow, get myself an appointment.
    I need to be ok, some point next week I've to take my aunty to Brid with my uncles ashes... A few of us will be going but she wants to go with us particularly as she has in the past on the 28th if April, my dad's anniversary.. His ashes are out to sea there as are my Grandads.. My uncle was dad's eldest brother...
    It's very important to me to go...
    I've also to get on a boat, lol.
    Wish me well haha

    thank you girls, much appreciated.
    I have just returned from the quacks with some stronger anti biotics..
    And.... ****'s law on this, what is turning out to be, lovely day... It says
    AVOID SUN :shock: :cry::cry::lol:

    I'm just gonna rest for now.. Toni has just rung, she's working two while ten tonight, her chap is doing lates too... There is a bus at ten to ten but she'll miss that and the next one isn't till almost eleven.. Guess who's on call? Daddy's taxi :roll:
    I must admit, I don't want her hanging around on her own down there waiting for the bus. And taxi's are out cos she's skint.. She can't get out earlier as she's in charge etc..
    Oh well, parenting never ends haha :wink:

    Oh Tony! What are we going to do with you? I think we are going to wrap you in cotton wool and put you in one of those bubbles to keep you from getting every little germ out there! My OH says that about me but you are way more delicate than me!! May be you could wrap Ra round your shoulder's so his fur will stop you getting germs! You take care you big ol'softy! And I send my magic fingers (my OH reckons I have magic fingers cause I do a great massage!) to you to massage your neck.shoulders and back! And I send Janet the wonder women a hug and Ra a fuss. Get well soon. xx

    thanks guys :D
    Just tried ringing the docs, shut for lunch.
    I took one of the anti biotics earlier, then just before twelve took my lunchtime tablets, paracetamol, lanzoprazole, alverine and peppermint oil.. Not long after I started feeling extremely nauseous... Maybe they dint mix well?
    Will try docs again later. Already rung chemist, the pharmacist was out at lunch and they suggested ringing the doctors :roll:
    What a polava lol.
    I'm gonna get mi head down, feel as rough as a liverpudlian council estate.. Just for you Col.. Lol
    Cos you refused to hug me.. Heehee
