Coronavirus

[Nackapan]

My surgery is shut for a deep clean. Fortunately I've not to be in isolation as many have. I was there last week though. Has anyone else been in this position? Perhaps you have to go elsewhere for your injection. Perhaps this might push them ti prescribe? Thank goodness with lots of help I've my own b12 in it's way.

What a good job you bought your own supplies. Nothing happening near to me. Just idiots buying all toilet rolls and hand gel.

What is it with the toilet rolls?

I can understand hand sanitiser running out (as most people probably never buy any). But why do people think they're going to need more bog roll that normal. They must be nutters.

The only annoyance it has caused me is that ordinary paracetamol (the stuff without caffeine) is nowhere to be found. One of my hounds needs 750 mg a day for her arthritis. I've got enough for two weeks and I'm hoping the idiots have run out of places to store it by then.

Surgery still open but epidemic of idiocy is spreading - no pasta, loo roll or paracetamol.

I had my injection at my surgery this morning without any problem

[Nackapan in reply to clivealive]

Good . I'm glad yours not shut.

Just wondered if anyone has had the problem of a closed surgery

Had my six monthly Diabetes check up with my doctor at the surgery this morning - no problem again and the waiting room was quite full at nine a.m.

Lucky you have some B12 on it's way.

Any idea about when surgery likely to reopen after deep-clean ? Are you able to listen to surgery's recorded message at all ? It may give you this info. I know you have some problems with using phone. I can't imagine they can stay closed for long - too many people need them.

I have also ordered some B12 recently, and noticed that they said it may take a bit longer due to current demand for medical supplies being high - I should imagine this to be more to do with masks, antiseptic wipes etc than B12 - but if they are busy, it can affect all orders.

You usually get given a tracking link and code number.

They have a website. I think waiting for result if suspected coronavirus case.

Anyone in there Friday is in isolation. I was there Wednesday. So had my injection.

It's good they acted so promptly. They are running a service but 20 miles away. ??which is odd

I think when practice was taken over must be from that area.

Quite a shock so close to home when I hardly get out!

So plenty of time for supplies to arrive

Thanks
