Just my update on 1mg coated Pred

[Marlenec]

Thank you everyone for your help and advise.

I have collected my 1mg coated Prednisolone from my pharmacist, who have now decided to order them for me. RESULT!

Great stuff. Still in manor park pharmacy?

[Marlenec in reply to Hidden]

Hi

Yes it is. I ring manor park to order my repeats. They then send in request to GP, when I told pharmacy that my GP said I could have coated 1mg when I'd finished the uncoated, I think that they ignored me and ordered uncoated. Then gave me the cock and bull story that "no such thing" and then "not cost effective". But when I came back at them they relented! Not good though is it - another person may not have fought their corner.

Thanks for your help Poopadoop.

Best wishes

Thank you for all your help - mind you PMRpro - you and all the rest of the aunties - it's obviously "ON YOUR AGENDA" !!! I'll remember to tell CP at my next app! Wish I could add a smiling and winking emoji on here - so just pretend.

Many thanks.

Mine is just done with colon minus closebracket with no spaces between. A wink is semicolon minus closebracket.

Glad to hear it - I usually come out so disheartened! Although I do have him to thank for referring me to the Dental Hospital where they saved a tooth that my dentist said could not be saved and giving me the hard sell to do implant.

Hope you are feeling a bit better and perhaps we'll see you soon!

Hoping to go to John Lewis. If you are there it would be nice to meet you.

[Marlenec in reply to May10]

I should be there if weather not too bad - slippery paths! ❄️

[Soraya_PMR]

Yeehaa! That’ll learn ‘em 😉

How very nice that they have ‘decided to order them’. It is their job, not their decision. Bl😶dy cheek!

You’re a force to be reckoned with. Good luck!

[Marlenec in reply to SheffieldJane]

If only Sheffieldjane!

[SheffieldJane]

I didn’t know that you were in our neck of the woods too? The Yorkshire contingent is growing. 😉

[Marlenec in reply to SheffieldJane]

Oh goodness - hope it not all those puds that are really responsible!

[SheffieldJane]

I won’t be at the John Lewis meeting, well I will in spirit. I hope it’s a good one!

[Marlenec in reply to SheffieldJane]

Oh that's a shame, hopefully next time and better weather too. Why not give your poor Fitbit an airing it must be so lonely sitting there all by itself !

Best wishes

You’re right of course but I am very “ nesh” since returning from the tropics, leaving my tiny motivator behind.
