Oh dear back pain sucks. Got any good drugs?

I have loads of drugs but there not for the back, so I have to use paracetamol and ibuprofen in alternating patterns, but then that does your kidneys and stomach no good o well I’ll just suffer in silence.🀣

If its intractable ask for a referral to a pain clinic. They’ll sort you out some better shit.

Referral that’s a joke can’t get to see the doctor they are way to important, can see the poor nurse though they don’t matter, It’ll be ok just pulled it the other day, just takes longer to recover nowadays.

I hope it gets better for you soon Keith.  Keep your eye on the diabetes, I never realised what a bitch that can be until I had to go for a prosthetic leg.  I though how have all these people had accidents until someone explained about diabetes leading to bad circulation.
