As long as you got it. we get ours delivered so don't have that problem not a very good system if they can't get volunteers for where you live. Hope you told the phamacy off  why don't you sign up for delivery? Makes things a lot easier.

I've been looking into those online pharmacies that link with the GP but not sure how good they are. 

Swatteam

You'll never know till you try them that's what they are there for.

I've just had another shielding letter come today, I've had the jab, in any case I still have to go Drs for Injections and blood tests and to chemist, so no point really, just have to be careful as the letter says I'm in high risk group of getting poorly with covid because of my lungs.

It’s all you can do, be careful and take precautions to reduce the risk.

@Sandy_123 I have a shielding letter but my dr comes here and does all my tests and the chemist deliver 

Even though I am trying to find a job ? x

Sandy_123

@lisathomas50 mine won't come out and the chemist deliver through royal mail, I have too much to be lost by the post.

@Sandy_123 all the chemists where I live deliver medication pre covid I went to the surgery but now they come here  

Sandy_123

@lisathomas50 that's good probably different in Wales, they do things different. It's better tho

Lisatho11987777

@Sandy_123 you would think if people are shielding  that they would do the same lol ? doesn't make sense does it x

Sandy_123

@lisathomas50 it don't make sense to be fair, 

Lisatho11987777

Good morning @Swatteam big thumbs up

Well a quick update i never did get speak to a gp or anyone for that matter but I went onto the nhs app yesterday and booked 1st vaccine I had it earlier.  Today I received the invitation for the vaccine but it said because I am a carer. So when does my health conditions come into anything?

MarkM88

By the sounds of it your GP thought your health conditions didn’t increase your risk and you have been invited because you have caring responsibilities. 

Swatteam

@MarkN88 probably but that's not following rules set out for getting the jab for him to put me forward under the carers he is ignoring my health but he is always doing that
If you knew what I've got then you would probably agree with me but thanks for the reply 

Swatteam

I have cardiovascular disease,  peripheral artery disease,severe copd,Osteoporosis fibromatosis, fibromyalgia raynaulds syndrome etc etc  if that's not enough to qualify in my drs eyes .no wonder he or anyone won't talk..

Sandy_123

@swatteam that defiantly qualifies you. I dont know why your gp isnt taking it seriously 
 How do you get on with raynaulds I have that too? 

Swatteam

@ Sandy_123  Its still playing havoc .what do you take for it..my gp is a nightmare
