Only a little. Did half of the shot of morphine I prepared for the morning, and then added a capsule of oxy IR to the remainder, topped up with water etc. Just filtering and getting ready to poke it now :)

Took my morning dose of clonidine too.

Recently I have been getting heartburn. I found that drinking milk helps. But it is something I will probably see the doctor about eventually. :-\

I think the heartburn has to do with the NSAIDs.

Quite likely NSAIDs, Ren. Try taking Gaviscon along with your doses of NSAID, its better than the standard calcium/sodium (bi)carbonate antacids, the alginate will help line your esophagus, and DO eat before taking the NSAIDs. Taking on an empty stomach makes them more prone to causing irritation, heartburn, ulcers, third world poverty.

Took some oxy, and morphine, nothing else thus far, my old man wasn't out of bed so I couldn't go and get the full lot, as the nearest pharmacy to my place of living doesn't carry certain of my prescriptions in stock/cannot obtain one or two of them from their suppliers at all, so I just went out to grab my painkillers.

I don't take any NSAIDS. What does Gaviscon taste like? I know I have a problem because it hurts my esophagus (sp) whenever I eat or drink anything really hot. Never had this before the last six months or so.

As for today, taken my meds today plus an extra dexamphetamine because I am feeling particularly fuzzy-headed.

Gaviscon often comes in a minty taste. It foams, and is really weird stuff to have in your mouth.
It is meant to help with heartburn and reflux. I used it now and then during pregnancies. Or when I was that tired that I'd get heartburn, and the heartburn would then keep me from sleeping.

Minty? My least favourite flavour. I shall go to the chemist in the next week and see what they have. Thanks hyke.
