Hi all ,

Well this was a surrprise , the gp phoned to tell me that I was getting cut down from 2 tabelts every 8 hours to one , I was on o.4 2 under the toungue every eight hours . now she wants me to take one under the toungue every eight hours I asked what the reason was and the gp told me she thought I was taking too many tablets the tablet in question is called Temgesic Subling 0.2mg


the chemist told me a lot of tablets are being cut back

Hi Mike are you happy with the reduction that is the thing I was asked or advised to come off the one you have under the tongue by pain clinic and have it replaced by patches but my GP said no as it would make me more dopey then I usually am I hope Hazel's blood pressure is not so low for long

Hi Mike
Chrisov is right it IS about whether that dose is ok for you.
I hope all is well with you all, including the Lad and little bird.
Someone once told me to keep a bag of salted crisps with me as I have low (but obviously not as low as Hazel), BP. Would that be worth checking out with the GP? You don't need her back in hospital
Take care
