If you are feeling sick when you bend over it could be the sign of a middle ear infection. There is no pain with it so hard to know you got it. Best get it checked out x |

Sounds a little but like labyrinthitis to me. It is usually accompanied by extreme dizziness though but when I had it moving that involved turning my head in any way caused extreme nausea. Easily cured with tablets I think they were just very strong version of sea sick pills. Hope you feel better soon. |

A&E is in a hospital, as it needs to be able to handle major traumas.
Walk in clinic is just a clinic in a building somewhere without all the equipment to be able to handle those that are seriously ill.

not round here anyway, they are liek a doctors surgery only anyone can use them. They aren't really walk in as I interpret it though, you need to make an appointment and you'll often need to wait for an hour or so but very handy in an emergency that doesn't quite qualify for a and e. |

Kate's got Labrynthitis or something like that. It's something to do with the tiny hairs in her ears
It's affecting her balance and she's walking around the house as if she's pissed  |

Hope you feel better soon, a lot of bugs going round so could be the onset of that or indeed a middle ear infection.
Personally I am on prescritpton anti sickness drugs at the moment due to the pills I am taking and they do work.
I would not bother going to any clinics today as you could wait hours and with a wee one not ideal.
Wait and make an appointment at your doctors tomorrow.
Flat lemonade and flat are both good at settling nausea.
But if related to a bacterial infection will not do very much.
Spend the day relaxing and no sudden movements.
Hugs xx |

Its like a GP clinic that you don't get an appointment for. You walk in, fill out a form and wait.
You'll first be seen by a nurse practitioner who is able to authorize certain prescriptions. So you may only see that person, get examined then either given advice and possibly a prescription - which they often have in stock so you might get the tabs and pay the fee or may get the paper prescription.
If they consider it more severe you will be referred to a GP on duty.
I googled and there's one at Gould somewhere in Plymouth. Not sure of the hours - the Sheffield one is 8-8, 7 days a week.
Prepare for a wait (magazine etc) but you could be lucky and be in and out in half an hour.
Get well soon honey |

"What would the OP do if it is her child that is sick I wonder? 
Come in here to ask for advice too? "

i'd say that f you have lived with it for a few days now then wait until tomorrow and get an appointment with your doc, last thing anyone wants to do on a sunday is wait for hours at a clinic!
Maybe give NHS direct a rig just for peace of mind and then take it easy today (as easy as you can with a little one running about  )
while everyone is in Dr mode..and a blatent hijack...can you get arthritis in just one finger joint? i have had a sore fnger for months now, i thought i had sprained it at first but surely that would have gone away by now? |

"I have used the walk in clinics a lot as I suffered regularly from tonsilitis and it was quicker to go and walk out with my prescription, especially on a weekend, then to ring up for an appointment at my GPS (Mondays are the worst to try and get an appt).
I also work away a lot so if I'm ill they are a godsend.

It is a valid point nevertheless. One would hope any parent would know where to get the correct advice on health issues and thus would know where to go for the correct advice for themselves…. especially if they have experiences of health issues under their belt.
One would also hope someone with a child would know there is a need to seek the correct advice when symptoms persist.
Personally my priorities would be to find the cause rather than how to avoid the symptoms… even if it was just to reassure myself my child was not at any risk of also suffering.
But then it really depends on what people want when they ask a forum for advice.

If I am ill, I know exactly what needs to be done, and don't need to milk for sympathy on here or otherwise.
Compassion is what I don't have, just ask my ex-hubby. |

Ditto! I've broken most of my fingers at one point or another and had multiple keyhole surgery on both knees.
When it's cold it's sometimes agony and the symptoms are identical to arthritis.
Luckily - it doesn't seem to affect my nose!! |

Strange? As the OP herself commented on a recent thread where you showed great compassion re a friend of yours! |

I was just asking for any nifty little cures that people have perhaps picked up from past experiences.
You clearly have an issue with me so why not refrain from posting when i do. It normal tends to end up with snipy remarks and frankly i think you look stupid for it. |

Unfortunately potential inner ear infections haven't got nifty cures apart from sea sickness tablets - but the over the counter ones are not that effective.
If it persists you need a medical exam. |

Yep it could be something potentially that antibiotics will knock out in a few days for you.
You can try things like sea legs and Buscopan (hyoscine) - they might help. Some people also have these alongside other meds for IBS too. They're relatively harmless and so they're available over the counter.
Stemetil works very well, especially if you ask for the 'eff' effervescent variety. Devil had the Buccal 'Buccastem' tablets recently and really didn't find them any good. Ordinary stemetil tablets work quite well too - just the speed with which they work.
Any treatment you get, the GP will have to weigh up the benefits vs the risks of giving you any medication, especially if you're on other medications.
Good luck and hope you're better soon

Not the same, but some are in hospitals...have a look on NHS Direct for your nearest one. They're basically a walk-in doctors so you may have to wait a while x |
