    Oh no @Sandy_123 have they said if they'd be able to get any antibiotics from other local chemists?

    It's busy today and I'm still fighting off this plague that sis kindly bought back from her trip to London last week, so I'll definitely be spending the weekend asleep haha.

    It's a royal pain in the you know whats currently! It's not helped with medication having to be shipped over from overseas which is taking longer these days. Hopefully they can source you the antibiotics soon!

    @Sandy_123 I always order mine like a week before and in special with venlafaxine they always say we do not have yet. It is frustrating but I give up. And they only give you a box a month. Unlike some others where I can get more than one box at a time ..

    @Sandy_123 but make sure you order them with plenty of time. I am scared of one day not be able to take my medicine. My pharmacy has to track the medicine by trying different places. But the whole situation leaves me very anxious. I hope you can get it on time.

    Afternoon Scopicles

    Had my first counselling session yesterday which was good. I get 6 free which I am really grateful for.

    Prescriptions are very hit and miss. Coming up to Christmas try to order in plenty of time is my only tip.

    Hi everyone

    I got a wash and blow dry at hairdressers yesterday and it really put me in a good mood. A bit of self care goes a long way.

    @Teigr did you ever track down the new company to take the scaffolding away? I have this picture in my head of it now covered in fairy lights lol

    I finally got the pip form but they give me a mere 22 days or so. Need to return it by the 21st .I am rather scared. Might have no choice but doing it myself as any charity or centre will be busy. They might cut it. As I am scared to use my pip .. so I am in the need of a laptop or tablet. Might get one. The old one Is not working well..

    Will they question me on how am I spending the pip money.. they might reduce it . I am not sure really ... I am not sure. This is my first reassessment and the previous one I didn't need to go. Very concerned if they I don't spend all the pip they will stop it. Who has experience with it. Do they need proof I am using the money. Now it is a safety net. I buy better food. Sometimes renew clothes etc..... Thanks
