Ness Jun 2022 1:14pm, 30 Jun 2022 22,734 posts	0 Ness The first prescription was 18 months ago. Now I use the surgery repeat prescription request system.
Ness Jun 2022 1:15pm, 30 Jun 2022 22,735 posts	0 Ness I put in the request last week and collected it from the pharmacy this morning. Sorry if I'm repeating myself. Can't remember.
