Contains all you need for pretty much any dental emergency excepting local anaeshetic (add a half bottle of whisky and you're sorted 
)I might pick one up then. I'm only a few miles from my dentist but if we have a winter like we did last year and I couldn't even get my car out of the street for a week, then it may as well be on Mars!Red Doe wrote:itsybitsy wrote:Have you tried those out RD?

Yes, I have the Dr Denti one and it is great.
If you've got it then you'll need stuff to eliminate the symptoms ie lemsip etc and take to your bed. Make sure you have plenty of fluids to hand (bottles of water,lucozade whatever you drink when you are ill).itsybitsy wrote:Just pondering the contents of the Winter Health Box, and thinking about flu. I live on my own, so (god forbid) I ever got flu, I understand that I would be laid up for a bit. I've got friends who would bob round with stuff, but I'd like to have enough to keep me going, at least. What, if anything, would needed in the medical box other than what's already been listed to help counter the effect of flu? Or is it a case of hiding in bed until it clears up?
I take a multi-vit now but should I be taking anything else? Gawd, yes, tell me about it - where I work there are 000s of grubby students from all walks of like, transferring germs and god knows what else everywhere.
