the start

Hi Andy from Andrew

Welcome

if you have questions list them for your Desmond -- I found this site far more helpfull than the course - but it seems that i got a bad one----
-
Metformin made me unwell - plenty of toilet time

if they give you ramipril watch out for the cough -- i was coughing for months before any one mentioned that to me like 6 months -- Dr said we missed that one have these inplace

have a good time

Regards

thanks everyone

spent all day reading the links you gave, many many thanks.

wow, my head ready to pop, giving it a rest for the day.

yup the ramipril does give a cough, not much use if you have copd from legionella recovery, so they gave me isinipril. cant remember how to spell it. feel as though i could qualify as a doctor by the time i come through yet another medical chapter in life.

cant thank you all enough, even though i forgot your names already, but i will get to know you as i pester you all more than my doctor, lols.

ok off for a small walk in the rain along sea front, cool off and clear the head.

speak soon.

cheers

andy
