Subject: The challenge of getting
my pain meds out of the blisters these last few days has been driving me nuts. My hands are so painful and swollen. I thought i would try the scissors but after stabbing myself gave up. My mum has the same problem but shes 86 and it just wants to make me cry when i can't do the smallest task. I must ask my pharmacy if my pain meds come in an easy open container. It doesn't help when i have to do my mums pills for her and hers are all blister packs as well. I think i might try for parliament and sort all this out LOL. Rant of the day over. Take care all.

Hiya Marlene, I hate the blister packs as well, I am struggling to get my tablets out, finding it painful and don't seem to have any power in my hands to push the pills out:(
Will be asking my Pharmacy for something easier:)
A big HUG to hopefully lift your spirits:)
take care xx

Hiya Marlene, the pharmacy will put them in easy to open containers for you. I get my meds from boots and there's a note on their to provide arther friendly containers. I save a few of them so when I do get blister packs (usually when I order extra painkillers) I can get my fella to pop the whole box of 100 out, put them in the bottle and then stick the sticker from the box on the bottle. take care
