Co-dydramol

Went to triage on the 7th of July for severe pains, come back with an allergic reaction!

Do not, I repeat, do NOT take this DAMN tablet!

The stupid doctor in triage prescribed me this drug, and as soon as I take it, I come out in little spots, on the top of my hands and feet, that over the days have become so painful that it feels like someone has poured boiling water over my skin and is slowly peeling it away! :'(

Called triage yesterday, and their only advice was to stop taking it, which I did as soon as I read that it can cause withdrawal symptoms in a newborn, and to try creaming it, if that doesn't help then I should call my doctor!

It's the GOD DAMNED WEEKEND!

The most shocking thing is that my midwife didn't even blink when I showed her this and told her that I was given this drug...

Hubby is taking me into emergency in the morning, hopefully they can do something...
