Keep hearing horror stories with these. Does everyone spend either a year in pain or living off pain killers? Is hospital policy just to say "drink water and hopefully it will pass through?"
DH in absolute agony with this. Prescribed suppositories, antibiotics, etc but painkillers only effective for a short time. Been to hospital twice, doctor's three times, rang NHS direct - just told the above, hopefully it will pass through.
No one can tell us how long do you wait in agony before you realise it isn't going to pass through. How can you go to work doubled up in pain and knocking back six bottles of water per day in a manual job and take 8 tablets a day.
Anyone any experience of this? What do you do? Sit up A&E and refuse to go home?
