Re: My doctor has stopped my diazepam!
Hi Lyn,
I reckon that must have been when they reduced the script for my my heart to 28 at a time, I was still working then so I told them that it was just inconvenient to me and my Doc. agreed to increase it to 56 at a time but she said that was the most she could do,I gather it's something to do with reducing the cost of meds to the practice. I've noticed that if I put a request in to soon it'll come back marked "not due yet" the NHS computer system even counts down the days and calculates how many pills you should have left. I can think of other things the NHS could save money on.
Yea you're right about not getting help comming off of meds, yet each practice is supposed to have a dedicated person to help patients do just that.
How much Diaz. are you taking & have you ever felt the need to increase them ?
