AWAKE.........

Love u all....wont take up any more “Awake”thread over it....thankyou Lovelies xxx

it was a rather embarrassing melt down in public .....xxx

Violetsniff - as far as I'm concerned, and I'm sure everyone else will say the same - you can take up as much of the thread as you like as long as it gets you through the frustration and anger... 

... thankyou.I wrote it as only people who have suffered the same will understand.xx when I am on the weong brand it has been known to give me joint pains,and also a feeling of being completely overwhelmed which can be very debilitating and I canrt really function without feeling like bursting into tears,and can last  for a whole day.xx 

I was lucky Violetsniff - when I was on Tamoxifen, it didn't matter what brand they gave me, but I have heard that for some people that the brand can make all the difference as to whether a drug is okay for someone or not! 

I heard it somewhere that these little guys 

were so upset to learn of your bad day Violetsniff  they wanted to help, the problem was they got tired and fall asleep 

But wispered to me, “ so sorry that you had such a bad day, we are resting up to extend our cuteness to help you feel better”

Cannon so sorry you've been upset. bc is hard enough I have so much constant worry in my head sometimes I can't take the extra challenges that wouldn't have phased me before. Why can't people understand this can't they be more understanding and help more  I don't have the same patience for other people's silly trivia now though I smile politely of course !  Hope you're ok now we understand xxxxx

Totally agree Optimistic it annoys me that these people are suppose to be understanding, not everyone can use the same brand of any drug, and they know this but the try to palm off cheaper brands at times and when you say that one is no good they look at you with disapproval. My Dad had a similar experience with a heart drug he takes. It’s not good when people are going though so much pain with cancer that they have to jump hoops just to be understood 

Hi all, Violetsniff  sorry to hear you had a rough day. ((((((((((BIG HUGS))))))))) I just wanted to say to you and anyone else who has a brand of tamoxifen or Letrozole, or any other drug that suits them. If you don't have an understanding Pharmacist.....there are some good ones out there......if not, get your GP to,state the Brand on the prescription! Then the pharmacist has no choice, they will have to get in the correct brand for you.

I recently discovered that I needed a capsule rather than pill for one of my drugs, the pharmacist said as long as it's on the prescription they would have to do it! I am someone who seems to react to different brands, so I know how frustrating it is when the pharmacist won't listen to you! Especially as they are supposed to be part of a caring profession. Maybe if they listened more to their customers they might be able to help patients who decide to stop treatment because the side effects are so bad, maybe some of these patients just need an alternative brand.

Hope tomorrow is a much better day for you! Take Care Hun. Xxxx

Just before I head to bed, I wanted to say........

I think we ALL have this one covered.
