Yeah, any form of consulation will be ok. But it seems there is a legal six months limit to scripts.

It still bugs me that we can't really share internal experience. After my smell came back I have a new sickly-sweet smell that's shared by hand-sanitizer, mint-toothpaste, lots of foods and literal feces. Aftertaste/smell in general but it's enough to put me off my lunch.

Being an entirely interior experience it's hard to share. Same as pain. You just have to trust the other person to believe you.

Ok I must have been drunk and have forgotten stuff, not unusual. What was this?

Edit: covid?

To add, think I walked past my ex from the 90's in Hermanus Woolies today. That was weird. I sent her a FB message tonight. Haven't had contact in 25 years.

Yeah I lost my smell in Covid but when it came back it came back differently.

Haven't spoken about it much, but it sucks.

Noticed you have been gone for some months. But had some drunken recollection of you needing thearapy or was it your SO? Hard to keep track as a drunk.

I wasn't committed in in 2021 although it came close. Took some time off things that tend to aggravate me (politics/scams especially).

All good in general, thanks.

I have asynchronous mosques near me

And now the further one is before the closer one (04:14). There has to be some app for this.

If not, how much income do Imams get? I could be rich if I make the app.

You are supposed to go see the GP to get a repeat after six months, by law I believe.

Yup

I am taking a crossword puzzle magazine and a book to read. Who knows how long I may have to wait? [Used to do a lot of this when I had to use state hospitals]

 

[Nicholas]

My doctor leaves a script for me. I tell the receptionist that I need a repeat and the dosage. Then I collect it later in the day

I also have a lipogram done. Don't enjoy the fasting part.

My doctor sends my script via email. I forward it to the pharmacy and they in turn send me a message to collect.

Pharmacists may legally extend prescriptions for another six months as per new regulations.

Your 6-month prescription expiring? Your pharmacist may extend it, new regulations state | Life

In what appears to be a bid to further restrict movement and lessen the burden on the healthcare system, if you have an expiring six-month prescription, under certain circumstances, you will not have to visit the doctor for a while longer, according to new regulations.

Is that still the case? Better tell Clicks and Dischem as they insist on six months.

It's at the pharmacist's descretion. I get my chronic from Springbok pharmacy or the private pharmacy in the next suburb. Don't really use Dischem as they don't stock gout packs.
