[QUOTE="therower, post: 1946940, member: 47983"] [USER=38553]@pab99c[/USER] . Fully understand your annoyance. I’ve recently moved to a new area and I’m currently experiencing problems each and every time I take a repeat prescription in. Last instance... asked for test strips and insulin. Went to nominated pharmacy and they only had order from GP for strips. A rapid visit to GP and receptionist couldn’t explain what had happened but said she would make a note and if I returned the following week I should get my prescription. I explained that after 28 yrs of doing this sh*t I knew how the system works and demanded a prescription there and then. She did say it wasn’t possible, nonetheless I had the prescription within 5 minutes. Stay calm, don’t be aggressive, talk slowly and talk loud enough to attract attention. At this point in time I am giving the surgery until after Christmas to get things sorted. They are fully aware of this and if last time is anything to go by, they don’t like me questioning their downfalls in public. We wait and see the outcome. Good luck at your surgery, hopefully we can both be happy T1’s in the New Year. [/QUOTE]
