Just one quick bitch ...

[Peter]

I woke up this morning with a headache and sore neck, and it's still sore.

[ozymandias]

When push comes to shove, go see your doctor.....meningitis is nothing to shrug off.  Better safe than sorry!

[Peter]

Bleh, I'd have to go down to A&E at the hospital if I wanted to be seen within a timescale that would be relevant to the problem at hand, and it's not that bad; it's just uncomfortable and is making me tired.  Maybe I'll go hunt down some anti-inflammatorys in the medicine box.  Got any recommendations?

[Peter]

I've got some diclofenac.  Think that would help?

[Litigious]

That's a pretty good anti-inflamatoric medication.

[The_P]

Why is my appetite so shitty lately?

[Peter]

That's a pretty good anti-inflamatoric medication.

It's stuff that mum got for an injury a while ago.  There's 16 25mg tabs left.

You can take two at a time of them. In Sweden there usually is 50 mg/tab.

Not sure what that is, Peter!  But, it certainly wouldn't hurt.  Ibuprofen 400mg or Naproxen Sodium 220mg are the anti-inflammatories I know here in the US.

Just check to see if the medication is out of date, if it's been years out of date, I wouldn't take it.  A few months or weeks, your most likely safe to use it.

It expired last month.  Maybe I should stick it in the freezer so it'll keep better?

No, it doesn't matter when they so recently expired.

[ozymandias]

No, as long as meds are kept in a cool, dry place they're good!  They don't need to be frozen!  Most meds are good for a few months past expiration date, at least those in pill form.  If it was a year or more, I'd throw them out!

Quite a few years ago, we went thru a pile of Percocet (acetaminophen/oxycodone) tablets from my wife's past surgeries.  They were years old and were dumped.

[Litigious]

Damnit, Ozy, you can send them to me nex time. Oxycodone is never wrong. I'll pay you properly. 

[ozymandias]

This stuff was years old and most likely toxic due to degeneration!   Most likely you wouldn't have gotten high, but sick!

However the thought did pass thru my mind that if I was unscrupulous enough I could have made some big bucks selling them on the street to addicts.  But, that ain't me!

[Peter]

My balls hurt.
