Writing this up properly because the last review thread was too vague.
Dispatch notification arrived before the parcel, which is the correct order of operations.
Prices moved once and I was told before ordering rather than after.
A substitution without prior notice is defensible when it is the same molecule and dose, but consent should come first.
The next order decides whether this becomes a habit.
Is it normal to feel worse before better? Nobody told me that.
Ask for the longer appointment slot. Ten minutes is not enough for a complex history and pretending otherwise wastes both your time.
Ten percent cuts. Slower is faster.
You are not imagining it and you are not being difficult. Document it and take the document in. Not on a documentation request but the pattern is familiar.
Sorry for the basic question, but how do you actually start one of these diaries?
Worth asking what specifically was measured. Pain scores move with mood and function does not.
Ten percent cuts, of the current dose not the original. That is the arithmetic that keeps it survivable.
Is it normal to feel worse before better? Nobody told me that. Tolerance was my main issue with a documentation request too.
You are not imagining it and you are not being difficult. Document it and take the document in. Same for me with a documentation request, unfortunately.
You have two changes at once here. You cannot attribute anything until one of them moves. How long have you been on a documentation request?
Ten percent cuts. Slower is faster.
Following this because I am in the same place and have no idea what to ask at the appointment. How long have you been on a documentation request?
Same shape here, different drug. The thing that helped was documenting the refusal rather than re-arguing it. They refer rather than write.
It gets smaller. Not easy, smaller. That distinction kept me going.
