As is the case with most drugs and most patients. The type of drugs I am on at the moment list the side effects as TB and lymphoma to name a few. Do I worry, of course I do but without these drugs I would be literally bed bound with joints that completely (and literally) fall apart. I also take a drug called methotrexate which is a chemotherapy drug but I don't have cancer, so you can imagine the side effects of this powerful drug.

When I was on my clinical trial the nurses told me that if anyone had anything wrong with them, developed lymphoma or other cancers, even if it was something mild like headaches, then the drug company by law has to list them as a side effect of that drug whether it was or not, as the patient was using the drug when they got that illness.

I would only go back on Vioxx if my current anti inflamatory caused me problems and there was nothing else suitable. Taking powerful drugs like this is a gamble in so many ways. It may or may not work for your condition and you may or may not experience side effects. I suppose currently, I am very lucky in that the only side effect from any drugs at the moment seems to be high blood pressure which is controlled by medication, which in turn has side effects The RA drug I am on now is fairly new on the market, so we'll have to see in 10, 15, 20 years time what the long term side effects are. I look at it from this angle; if the effect of the medication outweighs the side effects then carry on, if the side effects are just too much and are making you just as ill, come off.

No point in cutting your nose off to spite your face.
If it was costing the NUM 34 grand a year in rent he'd probably have ended up saving them a fortune in the long term with his tenancy discount to buy.

She beat labour by gifting them 13 years in power? And a party so unelectable even a global financial crisis couldn’t get them a majority? The Tory party is so hated in large swathes of the UK it barely exists, it is shrinking to its heartlands and having to hide behind xenophobia and invented enemies just to keep itself relevant.

And yet, despite your strident accusations is expected to win the next Election.....

Perhaps a period of quiet reflection is called for in the Smokey abode?

expected by whom? even most right-wing organisations have been predicting a labour win for a year or so.

thats why Cameron is throwing a fortune at Lynton Crosby and his dog-whistle policies. Even Michael Ashcroft has Labour winning a majority of about 60 seats.

That's right up there with some of the stupid polls Ajay has come up with.

You were told this was rubbish last week. You had no response.

You have your opinion. Don't make it is shared by the majority when it is not.

So hated that Labour have only averaged a mere 3-6 point lead in various opinion polls?

I see he tried to buy his flat under RTB, what a great socialist!

rlApologies if already linkedrl

Doesn't that conflict with what you have been claiming elsewhere on this forum?

And your links and answers are awaited most eagerly on the fracking thread.

If you can't beat them....

Oh look: he's run away again before posting links to support his claims, and answering questions.

i did have a response, you pointed to a set of polls, i pointed out the flaws with them and that these had been pointed out before, we all laughed.
