Thanks DCUKMod. That's extremely efficient!! Ours is set up the same, so I can order on 18 December, but because I can only take specific brands in some tablets,(which the chemist won't get until the script lands, even though I get them every month) it often takes longer than a week for them to obtain them. With the weekend in the mix as well, I'm going to have to order them earlier than the 18th, so will have to contact the surgery.
Am very impressed with the speed you get yours though, as even with tablets that it doesn't matter which brand I have I can never order in the morning and collect in the afternoon.
I'm the same with Levothyroxine. TEVA brand makes me feel really sick, but others are fine. I've never had a delay on collecting on that basis. My script is marked every month.
Having said all that yesterday, yesterday it didn't go so well.
My OH has an ear infection, so spoke with the surgery who prescribed antibiotics. Attestations that "They'll be there by lunchtime" resulted in 3 visits to the pharmacy and calls to the surgery being batted from one to the other. One shifting the blame to the other. I didn't care where the glitch was, I just wanted to collect the script and get out of the cold and damp.
Never mind, we got them in the end and they're under way.
I guess the best of systems go wrong sometimes.
