The world is falling apart! Trying to get some of my prescriptions has been v difficult even when I order well in advance. Ordered 3 weeks ago and now on my last Letrozole tablet tonight..fortunately they stay in the body for a while but slight panic as everything goes slow between Christmas and NY!

  • Hi Tavares that’s terrible I get mine from my local boots every 2 months and they are very good . Took a while to set it up Doctor will only give max 2 months but at least it is better than 1 month.

    Good luck let me know how you get on please ?

    Here’s ironic!!! 2 hours after posting this I got a text saying my prescription was ready! I picked up, got home only to find…..It was a prescription for blood pressure tablets (I picked up a previous pack just 4 days ago!!) and NOT my Letrozole cancer tablets!! You couldn’t write it could you? Rang GP who said they’ll try and do an urgent script before end of this week!Grimacing

  • I do hope they get the tablets for you before Xmas . Are you ok with different brands . I stick to the sane brand found the tablets easier to toleratebThumbsup

  • That’s a thumbs up sign by the way scared me half to death I’m so terrified of posting in case I get something wrong

  • Hi, I use the app “Patient Access” so just go on there and pick the medication I need (your drop down menu will only contain the items your GP has pre approved). It works really well and I’m usually able to pick up from the pharmacy 2-3 days later.
