Can i ask, in our community is anyone else struggling to get their prescription properly have had to switch injection needles, my libra 2 sensors have been late coming in and had to return to finger pricking if both sesors have expired, my lantus I've had to wait for it to come in as it's not been received in the order and did not have creon last month to help me digest my food as my other pancreatic enzymes don't break it down
 
No I haven’t. Order online to Gp and prescription goes through to our local independent chemist within 3 days. The only thing there is a delay on is Fiasp which has always been the case and I order well in advance.
I feel you should ask your Gp to do an extra order for Libre so that you are always ahead of the game. And make sure you order them 4 weekly and not monthly. I have 4 in my drawer at present so can cover all eventualities.
 
Yes, frequently various items are unavailable. I got round this by ordering a few days early for a few months, so now have 3 weeks 'in hand' when I order my prescription. Only a problem if I start a new medication.
