If you panic bought, what will happen when they finish?

[PearlsPearl]

I have 2 pens in the fridge already (as I use the 5th dose) and panic ordered 2 pens last night from 2 of the providers that I've used before.

So that will keep me going for 4/5 months. But then what? I'm worrying that pharmacies won't allow me to order a 10mg pen with a 4/5 month gap since I last ordered one. Will they make me go back to 2.5?

I'm worried because IQdoctor don't allow a gap of more than 5 weeks between orders, and PharmacyExpress is 6 weeks.

Do you think they'll change the rules and allow the new orders a few months down the line, knowing so many people stockpiled?

(PLEASE this is not a thread to bash me for buying 2 pens. I have been so upset all last night and today, so don't need to be made to feel worse)

You’re quite a nice one though. 😘

Panic buying is usually peiple stocking up due to shortages, in this instance it was a very well publicised and signficant price increase, so people bought to mitigate that increase, I don’t think it was panic, there was no doubt the pricing was going up. So I don’t think I agree there was any panic buying, it was bulk buying advanced of the increase, and I am surprised there are people who openly declare they can’t understand that,that’s a level of financial privilege seldom seen,

A lot of us on this thread, and others, have been called names by you over the last few days.

I, for one, don’t understand why/how you’ve gone away without ID, and why that is anyone else’s problem. I’ve said on other threads, I saved £420 by buying the three pens Oushk recommended I buy. That’s more 1/4 of my monthly wage. That’s huge for me and I’m not going to apologise for it.

Because they don’t update ur quick enough

they may have low doses. Has been very hard to find 7.5/10/12.5

and I contacted 3 new ones. Did all the checks photos weight bmi etc which took 1/2 days and then they say out of stock

Well there's some untruths in this thread. I used the word arsehole once and certainly have not called others names.

I have given up trying to explain a situation I unfortunately found myself in. However today my prescription has been agreed so will arrive tomorrow. It is past my injection day but apparently you can take your regular dosage later than usual so there we go. I do wonder if some companies have held back delivering to try to control things, annoyingly.
