Your doc said you can't have anything but panadaol ? Pls get a second opinion ! In my last pregnancy (at about 30w) i was very sick with a cold and nasty cough which i just couldn't shake. I thought i couldn't take anything. I ended up going to the doctor and he said i must go on antibiotics (there are some that are ok for pregnant women) immediately otherwise the sickness (perhaps infection) could harm the baby.

So go to another doc and get something for yourself (you have nothing to lose). And when you go to the chemist with your prescription then confirm with them that it is for you and that you are pregnant (you must stress this so they give you the right strength etc).

good luck and take care
