Malanka Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Griff mate very few antibiotics have a proscription on alcoholic consumption and most GPs and dentists frankly would know or care there is a difference. Which is why they all say the same BS. Metronidazole ( flagyl) is one. And the sulphanilomides If youve just got amoxycillin or augmentin no reason not to drink away safely and so on.

BroadAmbition Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 What has occurred with my gnashers is an on going thing. My dentist reckons I'm doing very well as both my Mum n Dad had lost theirs way before they got to the age I am now. So I get a tooth cracked / broke and its gets fixed regular like. Only this time an infection set in. I commenced a course of Amoxycillin which historically normally does the trick. Not this time though. Sunday evening I even missed the regular visit to the pub. Side of dish swollen, much pain despite Brufin and paracetamol. What did help was putting an action film combined with dark rum and pacing around the lounge. After visiting dentist I am now on Metronidazole until Sunday then back to dentist. First drink allowed 24 x Hrs after last tablet - and do you know what - It's a breeze. I'll volunteer to be duty driver on Sunday too. Anything is better than a gum infection / toothache Griff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendel Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I had a cousin who was on one of the ones that do react, one sip of alcohol and she was acting drunk as a skunk, and sick as a pig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisB Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 The cereal crops are up at this time of year and demand for fertiliser practically zero hence this is when ammonia plants and downstream production facilities are maintained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisdobson45 Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 I wish that there had been a beer shortage last night when we were out celebrating Germany's exit from the World Cup (I work for a German company). This morning we are hanging......... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malanka Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Sorry John was that a joke ? And you have heard of the Rheinheitsgebot I assume...LOL ? he he The Germans also brew Ales as well, so do the Belgians. The aforementioned regs insist that ONLY water, hops and Malt are used. Slow bottom (lagers) and more speedy top fermentations (Ales) and the temperature of fermentaion (lagers cold Ales warm) etc are main differences between Ales and Lagers but not all German or Belgian beers are lagers. Whilst resident in belgium I tried hard to sample some of the over 2500 different beers readily available. Wheat beers are still my fav though.

M Our HQ was in Mannedorf and the hotel that I stayed at in Rapperswil used to brew it's own white beer. It gave you the most fearsome headache ever. I think itt was the Hotel Speer but it is a few years back now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malanka Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Headache plus trots the next day I’d imagine. White beer is great for constipation M 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
