Got rescue pack from consultant and unfortunately I have had to use it! So who do I need to see to get another rescue pack, consultant or do I ring my doctors?

If you ring your doctors, they should be able to prescribe you another. If you ask, they may put it on repeat prescription, as mine has for me.

If I need to use my rescue pack ! Have to ring and see my GP. They check me over and see if I am OK or need more medication. When I am stable again they then prescribe the next rescue pack. This seems to work well.
