Well today's sucked. I've had really painful stomach cramps all day. I took paracetamol, codeine, ibuprofen, and none of them worked. So I spend most of the day curled up in bed with a hot water bottle.

.....and they found Frelling Tralk clinging to a water bottle, victim of an apparent drug overdose.....

Be careful girl!! And are they girly cramps or digestion cramps? Either sucks, and you have my sympathies. A cup of warm tea works for me sometimes....

Girly ones. I took the paracetamol first and no effect. Then the ibuprofen, still nothing.

I was a bit naughty actually. I had already taken two paracetamol recently when I took co-codemol. I didn't have any codeine by itself so I chanced it.

I'm okay now but for hours I was waiting for the drugs to do their thing and nothing.

At least I could indulge myself and lie down until the cramps passed. The one good thing about still not having found a job.

i DON'T think you're supposed to mix ibuprophen w/codeine. i will check. but i still don't think it's safe, all that crap is prolly eating the insides of your stomach!!! you're not naucious are you? *concerned*

try a glass of milk, or nice cup of hot chocolate. soothing.. :)

just make sure you have your cute little doggie with you, they help the most. i'll let you know what i find out! wishing you WELL!! *hugs*

Well I felt nauseous before I even took anything.

Ahh! Be careful!! I don't get cramps much anymore, but Midol used to work for me. I don't keep any around, so it's usually just ibuprofen now. But the hot water bottle and a little R&R usually does wonders. Or if you can get yourself engrossed in a show or something. But then again, sometimes the pain is so weird and intense, noise and distraction just makes it worse....or maybe it's just me!

I hope you wake up bright-eyed and bushy-tailed in a few hours :)
