HELP no needle and syringe for trigger IVF

[Rjp518]

I need help. I am at high risk of OHSS so will now be using Suprecur as my trigger injection. I picked up the prescription today but they didn’t supply a needle and syringe!

What should I do? Where could I get one from? Would I just go to a pharmacy?

Thanks in advance!

The same thing happened to me! I rang my nearest hospital and they were able to help me, I got there with minutes to spare before trigger. Hope you get it sorted xx

Ok thank you! Do you think it’s worth trying a pharmacy or is not something they do?

Pharmacy couldn’t help me, I ended up going to local gynaecology x

Take your prescription and meds to local A&E they should be able to help/ give you syringe . Alternatively call 111 and they might direct you to a late opening pharmacy who way have stock . I hope you get sorted xx

You can usually buy them at a local pharmacy not places like boots, asda etc but small local pharmacies that's were I get mine from

Where do you live? I have a cupboard full if you get stuck - I’m in Lincolnshire

I’m in Leicestershire! I’m currently on hold to 111 after trying pharmacies with no luck! If I am desperate, I might take you up on that offer!

Thank you so much.
