The Drugs!

Ah, what would I do without the many pills I have to take daily? I have a huge box of them that is gradually taking over the whole bedroom.
 I cannot function without the painkillers (3 different types per day). The problem is keeping up with the re-ordering of repeat prescriptions, quite often I run out completely, and the chemist takes 2 working days to process them....... so sometimes I have to do without for a few days.
This is a bad thing, as withdrawal symptoms start to kick in; headaches, aching joints, dizziness, tiredness and feeling like a grumpy bear.
Funnily enough, the best thing for sore, aching joints I've found is a scorchingly hot bath, with a few drops of lavender oil in. Honestly, there's nothing like it, but on the down side, the effects don't last as long as strong painkillers.
Also, kisses from my kitten Groucho help immensely (he seems to know when a cuddle is required)! Cuddles in general seem to help, so, if you know someone suffering with ME, Give them a big hug........go on, do it now!
Right, I've gone off on a tangent, I'm meant to be talking about drugs right? So, my advice is get yourself one of those granny pill dispenser thingies, where there is a lid for each day of the week, then you should keep on top of things.
Right, all this blogging is making me tired, so I'm going for an afternoon nap Zzzzzzzz
