Good Evening,
I am in such a pickle, since weather has changed my patches just won't adhere.
Add to this my pharmacy ran out (supply issues) so I have either gone without for 3 days whilst hassling the GP for more then put a fresh one on 4 days in a row as falling off!
As a result I have horrendous joint and muscle pain, back, one hip, legs, elbows wrists.
I am bleeding heavily, I feel awful, my mood is lowering and no phone call appointment with GP until 21st June.
I asked pharmacist if I could stick patches somewhere different she said MUST be between knees and waist. I usually stick on thighs.
I have really benefitted from these, I am so distressed I had to go without for so long I feel like a dried up old woman.
Such painful joints and bones, it would be so helpful to hear similar stories re joint pain and whether any vitamins etc might help.
Also any advice on patch supplies and sticking!!
Thank you so much, I feel so low and fed up and to top it all.....sleep, what's that? I cannot sleep, and can't believe how quickly one's health changes from 7 days of either missed or falling off patches.
Sorry to moan,
Primrose
