i was just about to post on here and saw Eileen's post re MS. Great result. I spoke to my lovely Rheumatologist's private secretary this morning and she phoned me back 10 mins ago. He is writing up a private prescription of Depo Medrone that is quite expensive but hey. Great news. I can take my injection with me and hopefully find a clinic in Cuba to administer it. Otherwise my husband who is needle phobic can do it or she told me I can do it myself in my thigh but not so good. Thank you everyone for your support and suggestions 💃😀

    See - answers can be found to idiot GPs. Cheaper than cancelling your jaunt I imagine though!

      And perhaps your rheumy will write a firm letter to your wishy GP explaining that you are quite capable of self-injecting so to stop being silly.
