You're exactly right @Bow and it truly exposes the gaps in the system for what they are - barriers to care for people who need it most.

How did you two stave off the heat today? @Snowie

Yep @Jynx

heat didn’t really hit me until this arvo, thankfully my group was in the AC, I lay on my bed in front of the fan when I got home. And turned the AC on in the kitchen for the first time this season while cooking/eating dinner. Still hot here so have the fan on. Might need to pull the summer pjs out tonight.

you stay in the AC @Jynx @Snowie ?

we had a cute little parrot type bird fly into where my group is. Possible someone locals pet. I caught it, it got away, caught it again. Someone took it until hopefully someone comes forward looking for it.

@Jynx just put up with the heat. Isn't as hot tomorrow so should be ok.

@Bow @Snowie I got the air con, fans, and heaters all set up at the moment!! Awkward time of year down here haha can get sweltering in the day and frosty as at night.

Aww little feathery pal!! Yeah hope he makes his way back home ay!!

I shall bid you both goodnight, hope you have nice cool restful evenings 💜

Well just as I suspected my gp said no to writing my script for me 😩 so bar a miracle happening I’ll just have to come off a medication that bought a fair bit of stability. 😩

Oh for real @Bow ? Bloody heck. Did they at least offer some support or anything to help you manage without the meds? When does the prescribing pdoc get back, was it 3 months you said?

Who knows with them @Jynx

My case manager just called. For this pdoc to write this one last script for me he has to sight me. So will go and see him on Tuesday. I don’t know if my CM convinced him to write me up enough scripts to get me through to the end of our holiday which will probably be a repeat? Or whether he will only agree to the one script. I guess I will find out on Tuesday.
I’ll get back from our holiday and come home to get through a trauma anniversary too.

my original pdoc that put me on this med, no one really knows when or if he will be back. He was sent elsewhere for 3 months and I think it just got extended for another 3 mths.

@Bow I shall be keeping all my digits crossed for you getting the longer script hun!! And for this nightmare to be sorted and be able to put it to rest ASAP!! Yikes!

When do you go away/get back?

Thanks @Jynx

we leave on the 18th dec and back on the 8th Jan.

@Bow gotcha!! Are you starting to get excited? Also I'm headed to PGC so will be floating about but just letting you know 😉
