Many thanks for your reply,  i was takeing the NSAIDs 3 times a day!! untill yeasterday,due to very distressing sideffects i have stopped them, and pain in my head is worse then ever!! i can hardly focus and am very weak. i cant get to a doctor till next week and have no other form of pain killer,  i am most upset and dont no what to do. If the pain gets any worse i will have to go to A&E  and forse the arm of the good old NHS here to do something for me, untill then i will just have to hold on tight and pray this hiddious pain goes away.  Many thanks  not least of all for this site!!! it is a gods send, to no you are not alone.
