Had a bad fall a week ago - ambulance to hospital did all normal checks legs moving ok after 5 hours in A&Ewas able to walk out with 2 sticks. No Xray or scans. Was already on dihydrocodeine for a knee replacement  8 weeks previously. Fall nothing to do with knee replacement.  Still in agony and have been back to Dr's as I was feeling sick all the time but not being sick constipated eating and drinking virtually nothing and feeling really down. Given sennacot and antisickness tablets and told to continue with dihydrocodeine.  Something which seems totally unconnected I've developed a twitch in the leg that had the knee replacement. Ringing the Dr tomorrow. Apart from the pain it is the not eating and drinking that worried me. Just wondered if any had experienced anythingsimilar

Thank you buenchico Yes I have most of those symptoms. I've had to stop taking them I feel so rough. Doesn't mention the not eating or drinking

Sad we lost sqad (do you know who I mean? - a retired docter) on these health problems. We always teased him on his advocation of iboprufen - sometime in large amounts.

It sounds to me that your treatment is exacerbating the problem, tying different painkillers may be worth a try - but I'm not a doctor.

I shall pray for you and hope you soon find relief.

Sorry to jump in on your question granny grump but Khando do you mind me asking why Sqad isn't on here any longer?  I used to see his name pop up all the time in the medical questions.

Hi shivvy...unfortunately sqad passed away back in January (iirc).

Att.Shivy. Sqad passed earlier this year

 

I'm sorry to say sqad passed away a while ago. Sorely missed.

I miss Sqad : (
