Any question answered...

Thanks for the advice, as it happens the Dr's had an appointment earlier today so went and go it checked out and apparently I have an infection of the eye lid! Antibiotics for a week to ensure it doesn't spread to the eye apparently, what joy. All hopes of going for a few pints after work have been dashed.

i always thought the not drinking while on antibiotics thing was a myth?
i've always been fine if that's any consolation.
