Yes of course I eat if i am hungry but I lost my appetite completely yesterday. It is slowly coming back which is hopefully a good sign.  I know the purpose of painkillers but prefer not to take them continuously. I have taken  another dose this afternoon though and also will  again overnight to try and get a better night's sleep than last night.

That's a good idea.  I use anti-histamines when I need a good night's sleep 

Let us know how you are!  How long are you away for?

I am only away until Saturday 20th. Just a short trip. Friend's birthday is on Wednesday. How do anti histamines help with sleep? I do have some here but have never used them for that. I will let you know what happens re. trip. Going to bed now with a mug of tea to watch Casualty and then have an early night.

Night night!

[Katejo]

The AB will kick in by Sunday night so you should be fine. Enjoy your trip.

You were right!  Still felt bad yesterday morning but it suddenly improved later in the day.  Off to Heathrow hotel when I finish work today.

Have a smashing time Katejo.

Anti-histamine can cause drowsiness, don't know why …… as can travel sickness tablets.

Looking forwards to hearing all about it 

[Katejo]

Oh I see. Yes I know that for travel sickness tablets though I haven't had to take any for a long time. I am still not sure if my uit has completely cleared as I am still getting irritation and not feeling 100% again. Don't finish the ab until Wednesday but might have to to go back to doctor on my return.

Have a good trip!

I've been getting one bout of cystitis after another. Was given the dreaded Nitrofurantion twice, it worked but not so well the second time.  It also made me feel absolute rubbish - nauseous, headachey.  I've now got an emergency prescription from the GP as I am away at the end of the month.  I told her about my probs with Nitrofurantoin and she said it wasn't the first port of call for cystitis.  But apparently because I am allergic to Septrin I can't have Trimeth*** - sorry, can't recall spelling.  I have heard of Augmentin though, wonder why I wasnt given that.  Anyway, she's given me amoxcillin.  However, since I started using Waterfall D-Mannose I've been infection free.  Worth a try when you return Katejo.

ask for treatment for vaginal atrophy  ?

[MrsMopp]

I'm already being treated for that CKLD but she did say if my continual cycle of BV, Cystitis and Thrush continue we may need to look at doing something with my current HRT regime.  She also mentioned a referral for the cystitis issue although at present the Waterfall D-Mannose is keeping that at bay.

[CLKD]

It is so tiring trying to find a regime isn't it!
