HELP! Forgotten my syringes!

MarshmellowMountain profile image

Hello!

I’ve travelled to Cornwall for a surprise party tomorrow and I’ve forgotten my syringes and needles! Is anyone near the Launceston area that happens to have any spare I could use please? Or know where I can go to get some?

I can’t believe I’ve forgotten them 😩

You could try a pharmacy, and the pharmacies in the bigger supermarkets supply IVF meds and needles, etc, so they may have some. Just you may need to prove what they're for or get your clinic to issue a prescription.

I did exactly the same a few years ago (also en-route to Cornwall )! I rang some pharmacies- you need one that had a needle exchange scheme- I found one and they managed to get me the right needles when I explained about the ivf etc. I did need to look online the correct sizes etc and did get it wrong initially but they were so helpful.
