Take them down to see the doctor. They're a real pain and you want to get some good shit for them (failing that medecine of some sort).
Aargh, photos!
Nurstursian (sp) leaves. They look like lillies with no flowers and have a peppery taste to them. They grow freely around, pick some and wash the leaves and chew only the leaves. If you are a herbalist or hippy, you can make a rather foul tea from the leaves too.

Already have...Originally Posted by Pwalo
Has been to docs twice... 1st time gave antibiotics?!...and voltaren
2nd time... they identified the cause of the sore throat (Ulcers)...
and doubled the dose of antibiotics?!... didnt even perscribe any type of painkillers (my stash is almost all gone!, leftover from when I had an off)...
Ive been taking over iceblocks n jelly etc...
Apart from medicine we've already got.... is there any herbal remedies that might help?? (no not a joint... cuz that'd hurt the throat too much...!!)
Has been in bed ALL week... sleeping etc... (snoring too.. doubt that helps!)... doc said 'your run down, take a break' kinda thing...
Gotta be something I can buy/make to help?!

It could be Herpes in which case PM Dover.
Or I could be getting confused with AIDS. PM him anyway.

It is possible, as is gonnorea and chlamidia......
A week is a long time to be laid low. I'd personally be inclined to go to another doctor for a 2nd opinion.
Make sure vitamin and mineral intake is adequate (Vitamin B12, iron, follate, zinc maybe). Take any vitamin tablets with food.

Yea. Not too much though as too many leaves 5+ in an hour tends to have a laxative affect.

Drinking organic apple cider vinegar (from a health shop, not the dyi supermarket stuff) after a meal can be good for some blood sugar problems - you may want to look into that at some stage......

There's sweet all you can do if it's in the back of the throat. It should be gone in about a week of appearing. Sadly, it'll get worse before it gets better. Because of the pain, your partner may switch to a liquid diet and lose a few kg.
Your partner needs to rest more, drink plenty of water, fresh vegetables, and ensure they have the right balance of vitamins and minerals.
Drink honey lemon hot water drink. That's full of good stuff and will help heal his wound. 1t honey, 1 whole lemon (avoid concentrate), 1 cup hot/warm water. (Adjust honey volume till you find the right tasting mixture for his taste buds). Drink as often as you please. This drink is also handy for fighting off a cold when you've just noticed it.
Hot honey milk will probably be nice as well because it places a film over the wound.

Ulcers in the throat - sounds like rather an odd place to get them. Mouth ulcers usually relate to tiredness and/or oral hygene. Salt dissolved in warm water can help them seal and repair. But I doubt that will work for back of the throat problems.

Oh ok... thats interesting...
Im not 100% sure on what kind of blood sugar prob it is...
body doesnt store it or something??..
Eats a HELL of a lot... like a HORSE... is slim/slender tho...
I dont know where it goes lol... If I ate the same amount... I would pile on the weight!!
Will have to have another 'tell me about your sugar thing again' evening...
I thought it was diabetes when first told about it... but whenever I say 'diabetes' I get told.. 'its not that'... *shrug*
