Hi. I put in an EPS request for Novorapid and Levemir (and needles) on Nov 8th as I was down to the last pen and vial of each. The surgery approved it next day, but I still haven't had the notification that my prescription has been made up. Last time I pre-empted the notification, I was told by Boots that they have a backlog of orders and it is a 5 working day wait at the moment. However, it's longer than that now and I'm concerned that I don't have quite enough NR to get through to Monday (by which time, I hope they have the stuff in!)
Is everyone else having these problems? How much reserve should I be keeping before putting in a request. It's 12 months since T1 diagnosis, and I haven't run out before.
