A mad couple of days

Hi

Thursday evening I twisted my leg, a long standing injury.

It does not happen very often, but when it does, I have medication for it.

A painkiller, very strong, and an anti spasmodic.

The usual 25mg did not work, so in went another 25mg, the maximum allowed.

It is the first time ever I have taken the maximum, the normal dose usually works quickly.

The drug has known side effects, confusion and delirium and I copped for both, big time.

Zac and Derek are here, got the local Doc out, who after checking me over, was not concerned, he will sleep it off, which I have done, slept all yesterday and only up and about late this Morning.

I was totally out of it for a while, and had no idea what I was doing.

In addition to a couple of weird posts on here, I sent a few weird emails.

I am having to do a fair bit of apologising.

Zac and Derek are wind up merchants and are teasing me ruthlessly and are laughing their heads off.

I cannot believe that I did and said some of the things that they are telling me.

I can only hope that they are winding me up.

The one thing is for sure, I will not be taking 50mgs ever again.

How awful for you Swimmy.
I avoid painkillers if I can, however, my sciatica has returned.
I will avoid the painkillers if I can.

Delirium is no joke; thankfully yours didn’t last long.

I hope you get better soon.
