Being as I'm old and riddled with arthritis
I get horse-tranquiliser strength ibuprofen.

mr b3th has pointed out that instead of the £7 I spend every couple of months on getting my prescription, I could just buy a 30p box of generic ibuprofen a week, and take three pills instead of one. I have refused to do this, as I am a mentalist.

horse tranx FTW
When I royally fucked my back in I was given some painkillers that put me on a different planet for about 8 hours. I remember arriving back on earth to find footy on the TV, a can of coke in one hand and a pizza box in the other. A good comedown if you will

I have some Tramadols a colleague gave me.
Do not mix them with beer.

I can't take tramadol
they make me throw up within two minutes. Guess how I discovered this?

By taking them?

There's a special test they can do before prescribing it?

No, pretty much what Monty said
They sent me home from hospital clutching a box of Tramadol when I had my kidney infection, and mr b3th had to race toward me with a bowl almost immediately after having settled me down to rest.

It actually isn't even worth telling. As you were, everybody.

I think we were both being deliberately obtuse
in our own special ways.

Everyone says this, but I've never had a problem from it.

I nearly collapsed on the bus having dropped two of them and had two pints.
And I am quite good at handling substances.

I tend to just take them before I go to bed if I'm having bother sleeping, which will explain why I don't get fussed by the 'passing out' part.

Mine just made me feel drunk for about 14 hours

yeah, I refuse to do this too
and I really should know better. But then a) I'm in Edinburgh so it no longer matters and b) I take horse-stoning doses of diclofenac not ibuprofen and there is no generic 30p version of that.
