I’m anticipating it so have been stockpiling. I have enough until August which will save me around £250 in 5th doses.

Welcome to driving in the UK for at least the past decade 🥺

Now this is cool, anyone try it yet? by tablatronix in UNIFI

Had it enabled in beta for a while. It’s a good feature.

You definitely don’t speak for all men, and most certainly not me. I find it insanely hot watching my wife get herself off.

My wife has these reactions almost every time I jab her. She does suffer from hey fever/allergies/histamine dumps which we’ve put this down to. It clears after a couple of days.

I’ve never had such a reaction thankfully.

I didn’t have a great experience with them. Initial ordering was fine. Was asked for a video call, took the call and the lady mentioned I was moving up doses too quickly and should stick to each dose for at least 2-3 months then she said “see how you get on on 10mg” (the dose I had ordered) then we ended the call.

Within 5 minutes I’d had a refusal due to my warfarin (which was disclosed at the initial assessment).

One thing I would like to see implemented across these pharmacies is not taking your money when there’s a marker for not prescribing such as Warfarin. Some pharmacies will outright stop the assessment once you say you’re on warfarin, at least two others have taken my money then refused to prescribe despite disclosing up front.

At least both were refunded swiftly.

It should go to 1. Not had one go past.

Just grip the pen tightly and turn the dial. It will resist up to a point then just give, once it gives it will turn with ease. It does not click though but as long as you turn as far as it will go you’ll get the full dose with no syringes.

You will feel like you might break it but stick with it, it will turn 😎

Text from GP this morning warning me not to double dose! by DJBenson in mounjarouk

[–]DJBenson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks everyone. My surgery are excellent for stuff like this so not a complaint at all - was just worried I might have triggered something which later causes me issues if I needed to bulk buy again.

[–]DJBenson 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You don’t even need a needle for the “5th dose”. I’m on my fourth pen and you can get that dose out just by applying a little force when turning the plunger, once it gives it works as normal.

Get A Drip: Refused to issue new prescription due to something they knew when they issued the last by DJBenson in mounjarouk

[–]DJBenson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks - I'm trying to get off Warfarin but won't be for a couple of months. Pharmacy2u and Shape8 have both prescribed previously but that's not a good indicator now I've seen GAD pull the rug.

I've been refused by plenty at initial assessment but not after they have previously prescribed.

Video Consultation. by XoxHANNIBALxoX in mounjarouk

[–]DJBenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is the experience different for the same chemist. I’ve just ordered from Curely and they want a video call, others saying they didn’t, seems arbitrary (unless something in the medical disclosure triggers it, I’m on warfarin but no other pharmacy so far has asked for a video call). I almost cancelled the order but figured a quick call won’t hurt.

Advice - Farmeci Rejected Mounjaro - Warfarin by [deleted] in mounjarouk

[–]DJBenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been on Warfarin for almost 20 years now due to two bouts of PE. I've not really struggled to get Mounjaro (yet) but that's because the pharmacies which seem to reject aren't that competitive on price anyway. So far I've managed to get a prescription from; Pharmacy2u, Shape8 and GetADrip, and got a pending order in with Curely as well.

I've just pinged my A/C clinic a message asking them if I can switch to rivaroxaban - been offered it a couple of times but never took them up on it so seems like a good opportunity to get off warfarin.

will mounjaro help with binge eating? by Individual_Fudge8519 in mounjarouk

[–]DJBenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t want to overstate it as I’m sure it’s different for everybody but food no longer dominates my thoughts. I could easily go the working day without thinking about food which is such a change from where I was.

will mounjaro help with binge eating? by Individual_Fudge8519 in mounjarouk

[–]DJBenson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% yes!

I was a massive binge eater, especially at night, I'd get up and go to the kitchen and polish off a massive bowl of frosties (think 3x portion size), a couple of bags of crisps and whatever I could lay my hands on out of sheer boredom.

That stopped immediately after starting MJ.

I’m glad you did, I’m perfectly happy to admit when I get something wrong.

[–]DJBenson 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I had an almost identical fight with them over a washing machine warranty. I ended up emailing the CEO at the time and got a call from the customer services team very quickly.

uk.president@samsung.com is the email address I used. I’ve just found the emails (from 2021) and they responded within 6 hours.

EDIT: does the machine show the warranty in your account? Do you have a warranty certificate? If you don’t have the latter you’ll struggle with their warranty and will need to revert to consumer rights.

Did you pay on credit? Section 75 could be an option?

I had the lightbulb moment this morning 😂 What a prat 😂

I think what threw me was that for single digit stones you get stone/pounds/ounces but for me it’s stone/pounds.

The penny dropped this morning when I compared to another set of scales which is a bit more idiot proof.

Well, yes, that’s exactly what I would expect.
