pain relief

Being Cookie?

I'm just me babe, no different here to how I am in real life and I love my life - cookie is just a nickname, but yeah.... I like me, I think I'm an OK person. Xx

After my last surgery I had a high, intense pain which I managed with: 3 tramadol, 2 paracetamol, 2 diclofenac and 2 codeine tablets. 
I was BFF with the anaesthetise woman  
My husband was given a brown little tablet they gave him after his facelift that he stills talk about. I wan't to try that one next time 


Cookie is not "an ok person"  
She is the Goddess of this little pink universe and the nicest woman in cyberspace 

Sorry i fidnt mean AT ALL ur diff here from home just meant enjoy what u do on the forum? All the hard work u put in xx

Lol @ your hubby Isabell, was the tablet called OxyContin?

Awww thanks for your kind words, you're far too flattering babe, but thank you

The first 2-3 times i took Codeine and Tramadol I also felt very sick but it got a lot better after that. So if you at any time in your life need to take strong painkillers and you feel sick of them my advice is to try the tablet a couple of more times.
I have chronic pain and it was my GP that told me to be patient and continue with Tramadol even if they made me feel sick in the beginning. And he was right, it was a lot better after my body has been used to them.

But for short term pain, as it is after breast surgery, you only need pain relief for a couple of days and don't have any time to "get used" to Tramadol. 
If your body accept the paracetamol and your surgeon said ok to neurofene, those 2 together gives an ok level of pain relief. But it's important to take them every 4-6 hours because the effect doesn't last very long.

Codamol (can be bought in pharmacies without prescription) is the "lighter" version of Codeine
(which is prescribed by a Dr) so if you really need something stronger try Codamol before Codeine. The effect is not as strong as from Codeine (30mg) so IF you feel sick it should wear off quite soon.

Cookie, can't believe how much you have to take on a daily basis and your still always here to offer all this advise and support Your amazing and true super woman. Xx

my cocodamol was 30/500 the ones they gave me and also 10mg diazepam to take along with them at night and wow what a sleep I got on them hahaha

I know that the night i was in hospital I had tramadol cocodamol and oramorph and that was a good mix hahaha xx
