Got my script today :cheer:
. Went to my local pharmacy only to find out I'd missed the delivery cut-off for the next day by 30 minutes. :ohmy:
My fault, I went home and fluffed about for a while instead of going straight to the pharmacy.
The pharmacist decided to call the supply organisation to find out if they had any in stock (the answer was yes :woohoo: ) and learned that it can only be ordered by phone.
So, if the dogs are smiling on me and the tablets arrive I will start my treatment tomorrow (pharmacist asked really nicely if they could deliver).
The doctor reckons I won't have many side effects apart from tiredness.
Being Genotype 1, I opted not to go on interferon treatment when I was first diagnosed in 2004 so this is my first (and hopefully only) treatment .
I'm not happy that the funding for the Hep C meds have come at the expense of other funding. I think that is all kinds of wrong, but I am grateful for it.
The script is for 28 tablets, with 2 repeats. Each script costs me $28 and some cents, but it costs the pharmacist 22 GRAND!!! Yes they get almost all of it back from the govt but it's still an expensive drug.
I've been instructed to cut out all supplements apart from vitamin D. Naturally I'll do what I'm told. I want those little orange buggers to work.

Great news - Good luck Beaches

Somewhat different to the UK - When Australia says the medicines are approved, they really are - Here they are still delaying, a commissioning group have to have meetings re every patient before they can prescribe, then more waiting etc etc

I wish you every success for your treatment and future good health :)

Hi beaches, yes, you definitely deserve a slap on the wrist. You've mis-spelt the word!

Hi Mohammad you need to get approval from one of our admin team to post about supply, once you have that then we have a "Pharma's Market" section for you to post.

Kind Regards
