It can be very difficult to get medical help at the weekend. but I will insist on seeing someone. tomorrow.
It is reassuring to know that there are other antibiotics for my problem . To be honest both my doctor and my dentist made me feel like I was stupid for not being able to tolerate the metronidazole. Thanks once more for your good advice ,and for simply caring enough to to give me the benefit of your knowledge.
Kind regards Paula.
