Post by mrs mac on Oct 25^th, 2005, 1:54pm

hey guys i have just posted this over on the uk site, but thought i would also share it with you guys!!!!

Quote:

hey guys!!!!

Andy had another really really bad attack today/tonight!!!!!

ended up having to phone gp out to see him as i wasn't letting him go through what he went through the last time!!!!

any way she came to see him and gave him a shot of voltarol!!

also gave him his 2nd frova as well, and kept him on O2 for another while!! She stayed until he was over the worst of it and to make sure he was ok!!!!!

while we were waiting on Andy's beast to calm down a bit, we got talking and she is going to phone PG's secretary for us and see about getting Andy a referral and find out how long we will have to wait!!!!!

please everyone keep your fingers crossed for us!!!!!!

he is a bit better now, don't know if it was the frova, O2, or the injection or maybe all of them, just glad the beast is heading back into his cage for now!!!!

she is fantastic!!!!!

she has been from day one!!!!!

and yes we do consider ourselves very lucky!!!

we stay on a scottish island so have no way of getting to an er dept when he gets that bad!!!!

she told us when she left that we have not to hesitate to call her out again if we need her!!!

hopefully the beast will give him some peace for the rest of the night though!!!

Sandra I have voltarol (diclofenac) in my bone arsenal although I haven't taken any in over a year. Its a strong painkiller, used alot after surgery instead of morphine. I had it after my emergency caesarean with Jasper.
How long is it until you are next in Glasgow now?
