Apart from taking out your wife in the worst possible way, permanently crippling her in the process, I didn't think you were that bad. Hmmm, I'm not helping, am I? >Anyway, if you fancy popping down, I'm 1.5 hrs from the slopes. Mind, I >think it might be a bit un-challenging for you. Well thanks for the offer, but we do have a home that's 2 minutes from the slopes (well, the lift) now, so it's not massively tempting right now... although I've never skied there, so at some point I ought to make the effort, I suppose.

Don't know how they affect you but I find that when I do both the drugs make the alcohol less effective and the alcohol makes the drugs less effective.

You're obviously doing it wrong :-) >Drinking more isn't a problem, but taking more pills can be. I confess that when I was on the morphine, I rarely had more than a couple of glasses of wine. It wasn't that I was worried, but I was already tired from the ongoing healing, more tired by the constant pain and made groggy by the morphine, so I couldn't really stay awake long enough to drink much more even if I'd wanted to.

JHC, drinking with morphine? Can't remember if I ever did, like you say you're not really with it, at all, any time of the day! Signaturefragmented > 'Ace' wrote...> >> [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > make the alcohol less effective and the alcohol makes the drugs less > effective. Depends on the drugs. Sumatriptan (for example) seems to considerably slow down the action of alcohol (on the brain anyway) whereas one of the other anti-migraine drugs I was taking (topiramate) seemed to have the opposite effect.. And most of my stuff seems to have no synergy[1] with alcohol. Phil [1] Word used properly..

Hmm, if we can do a URKM survey we might find an easy way of getting pissed cheap that doesn't involve Aldi brand booze or £1.99 bottles of wine. > And most of my stuff seems to have no synergy[1] with alcohol. > > [1] Word used properly.. <narrows eyes> I'm keeping an eye on your hair you know.

What's wrong with Aldi cheap wine then? Or Lidl, for that matter. Just polishing off our second bottle of the night, as it happens, an aldi-sourced Tarragona red, at around Eu2.95, IIRC.

Or Lidl, for that matter. I tried a bottle a few years ago. It would have been OK for cooking wine (if I ever used any, if I ever cooked), but was horrible to drink. > Just > polishing off our second bottle of the night, as it happens, an > aldi-sourced Tarragona red, at around Eu2.95, IIRC. > > Very palatable, it is.

I think the mantra is something like "never cook with any wine that you wouldn't be prepared to drink". SignatureChris >> 'Ace' wrote...> >>> [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > I think the mantra is something like "never cook with any wine that > you wouldn't be prepared to drink". A recent incident would have been avoided by the mantra "don't pour back into the bottle any wine you've been marinading the meat in" and the mantra "don't drink wine from a bottle you find in the kitchen if it's completely opaque with bits in". A nice meaty red, it was.

You need to take topiramate for about two months before it becomes effective. And you have to start at very low doses and work up to the standard.
