Sheevee don’t know how you got here either but we all end up here in the end !!!. If your Pain Clinic have recommended three a day then write to them and ask them to write to your GP. Your GP would then have to prescribe. Unfortunately it comes down to the pennies and the GP Practice loses out by prescribing but that is the fault of the system not the fault of correct medication. Some drugs cost practices more than they recieve but they do very nicely out of a lot of prescribed drugs. No point in a GP referring if they don’t follow the advice of where you have been referred to….that’s a bigger waste of pennies and health care objectives. One small letter should solve your problem…well the medication for you anyway.
