Private prescriptions

I’ll have a routine blood test tomorrow and then email my Endo the results and ask for my next prescription.

My question is, I usually get a 6mth prescription and send it off to Germany. Obviously Brexit is a PITA. Is it possible for my private Endo to write me a prescription for a larger amount? Say a year even?

i’ve just seen private endo for first time and i asked for 6 months as i won’t be seeing him again til after 31/12, so worried the german pharmacy will refuse my next prescription. he’s also reduced my t3 so i really don’t want to run out

I just told my endo how many I would like (500) . She asked me if they would actually send that many and I said they did before so she wrote me a prescription for 500.
