Get some help now. Ring your local out of hours Doctor service, possibly quicker than NHS direct.

yes ring them essbee. Make sure you've got the box of ad's in front of you so you can tell them exactly what they are/dose etc.

You'll be ok

Can cause dizzyness. Also what were you taking before? Have you been taking them as prescribed? Please do phone GP though. This should be looked into.

Sorry essbee, I didn't think of nhs direct when we were talking on the phone, it's a good idea.

Hope you get it sorted, then please try and get some sleep. I am off to bed, lots of love, speak tomorrow. xxx

I have Lustral at the moment, only taken 1 and have stopped already. They are horrible, I think I had them once before and had severe shakes etc. The one and only pill I took the other week left me physically ill, I would rather go without.

I think you should have a word with your doctor as soon as possible and see what they can do.

You take care xxxxxxx

Have you tried the GP out-of-hours service as well? Sometimes the docs will come out in these circumstances especially if you explain you have no-one to hand.
