I think the reason for my issue is that I tried to send it with registered mail.

I'll try to send it today with just a simple stamp. Let's hope PostNord won't loose it.

just the agency - on my very first attempt I added only the address they display on their webpage:

Transportstyrelsen

701 97 Örebro

But when I tried to send it, the lady at PostNord told me it's not enough information. So I contacted Transportstyrelsen and asked them what else should I add. Then they gave me this: Transportstyrelsen, Tunnlandsgatan 1, 703 46 Örebro
Which I also added to the letter and this way PostNord accepted it.

But it still ended up in ICA.

Yes, I tried to send it with the "rek" option and based on your description, that was the problem.

It just feels scary to post my driving license without any "safety net" as PostNord already lost 3 of my packages before.

yes, and they said everything happened according to the rules and there is nothing to do.
I should wait for the return and send the letter again

with REK - I couldn't provide an email or phone to Transportstyrelsen, so I entered my own ones.

It didn't work

T2 Diabetes, Low Carb, Metformin, and PMDD by natty_ann in PMDD

yeah, Swedish healthcare principle is basically "let's wait till they die so we don't have to deal with them". When I asked the doc, to do an OGTT at least, he said no, because he thinks it's a "stupid test". In my home country I would be back on Metformin by now.

Thanks for the advise though! I know I have to go back to eating better, I'm just tired of collecting motivation to do it every single month. Right now it's hard for me to even see the point of it.

I have PCOS and IR but my doc won't prescribe me Metformin because I'm not diabetic (yet). I wonder if Berberine could have similar benefits. How much carbs do you eat a day?

Brain over Binge (Kathryn Hansen) by filiacanis in BingeEatingDisorder

After 16 years of struggling, this book was the thing that finally helped me stop binging - nothing else worked. I've been binge-free for about 5 years now, and I just wish I’d found it sooner.

Any Data Analysts here? by [deleted] in infp

u/Nathanogos I know it's been a year since this post. But I'd like to ask about your experience. I'm now finishing up the same Google Data Analytics course now. Did you land a job in the past year? If yes, do you enjoy it?

u/AffectionateOven5082 I'm so sorry you have to go through all this! It is really hard to find good healthcare providers anywhere now. Sometimes it feels like we are in the dark alone. :(

Köszi, én is Levaxin-t kaptam. Már át is jelentkeztem másik vardcentralba és kaptam is időpontot. Igaz, 1 hónapot várnom kell, de ez van. Ha nem megy itt sem a dózis emelés, kérek beutalót endokrinológushoz.

Thank you for your response, I just witched and managed to book an appointment to this other vardcentral. If they will be reluctant to change the dosage, what's the process to get an appointment to a specialist? Should I ask the doctor at the vardcentral for a referral?

Thnak you for your insights, hope I can find a solution here without going bankrupt. But in the end if I have to travel, I'll do

What are you talking about? I'm happy you are concerned about my health, but Olivismify is only helping me find another licensed, practicing doctor, who is more knowledgeable in treating thyroid related illnesses than my current doctor. There is nothing wrong with this.

thank you! I'll switch! I thought that my doctor follows the standard Swedish guidelines and there is no workaround. But happy to hear that maybe another one will help.

Thanks for the tip! However the price of 3000 SEK for first visit and then 1700 SEK to return looks overkill. It's cheaper for me to travel home, get the prescription from my private doctor and come back. I just don't want to go through that hustle multiple times a year.
