I had the same problem when I was on them so mine got binned .@tina_marie - That is a well known problem with pain relief tablets, I eat 2 - 3 dried Apricots just before bed OR 3 -4 dates. But if he mentions it to his GP he may well be prescribed sachets of stuff to dissolve in glass of water and drink which are sugar free for diabetics.
Yes, I suppose that things today............Mine are the heavy ankle boots. Pale blue (dirty pale blue) with white padded collar. Not Timberland, possibly No Fear (tho just as likely not) but you get the idea. Nothing like the tight fitting smooth leather slight platform knee boots I once had (nor the figure that went with them....
You have my greatest empathy. Tramadol did nothing but make me itch....@Sable_Jan - I can take up to 150mg Tramadol a day and up to 400mg of Pregabalin = Lyrica a day. But, I am having injections every month of COSENTYX and so the dosage of the tablets are being reduced. My sleep is broken about every 20 minutes with changing position, as the pain just builds in certain joints.
Tramadol makes me itch, too, but you're right about the memory foam. I have an 8" topper on my mattress and - oh my god - I do so love my bed!!! I did once try a memory foam mattress, although not one of the really expensive ones, but had to get rid of it. It was so soft that I just sank into it, and had to spend half an hour struggling on my back with my arms & legs flailing around like an overturned beetle, simply to get off it.You have my greatest empathy. Tramadol did nothing but make me itch....
I'm on 2x 75g Lyrica daily and 50mg amitriptyline at night. Plus my water tablet and BP pill.....
Have you tried a memory foam mattress topper? Mine's 4" and does take a lot of the pressure off
oh dear I do feel a t**t ! Must get glasses for close/reading, don't need for distance anymore, must have clicked on old post! Ok 2 cheap dates, first g&t on me, tried to get William to come but he's probably worried incase I go searching for a leprechaun after a couple of drinks!!! Get your boots on I'm booking the taxi, put your boots & skinnies on!!! Ha ha. You coming Liam? Anyone else ?Hi Maureen! Maybe you read an old post of mine? I feel fine...
In fact, I'm more than up for putting the boots on and going for a booze up! We'd be a pair of real cheap dates, as I haven't had a drink at all this year either, lol

Not quite the elegant image I like to portray!
That sounds just what I need to ward off early "I don't want to go back to work on Monday"-itis!
That sort of sums it upYes, I suppose that things today............
are not what they once were...............
--sigh--
Yeah, the first couple of times it made me laugh, too, but the novelty soon wore off!Oh but you did make me laugh
Skinnies???? I don't have anything skinny these days - my hair's the only thing that's thinning!H

My boots are Uggs But I have a pair of black patent stilletos with 4" heels, would they do?Why don't we ALL put our boots on and go for a drink?!!!! That would be an event not to miss..........
Wow - you saucy thing, Anna!!!My boots are Uggs But I have a pair of black patent stilletos with 4" heels, would they do?

I'll bring the camera.....................Well @Cumberland could borrow those, he said he didn't have any
Yes, but after a couple of vodkas I'd likely fall off them and break my ankle then we'd all end up spending the night in A&EWow - you saucy thing, Anna!!!
It sounds to me as if we're all cast from the same mould. What a pity we didn't all meet years ago, when we were at our most outrageous - what a riot that would have been!Yes, but after a couple of vodkas I'd likely fall off them and break my ankle then we'd all end up spending the night in A&E
