Alright, will do. I'm a bit worried that my GP will just stop prescribing me a refill, but it's better than losing my pancreas, I guess.
They'll only stop prescribing it if they (and you) think the risks outweigh the benefits. It might be something much less serious and you would be much better off knowing either way.
Finding the right meds can be a long old haul. Good luck.
Thank you.
Yep. Also, it may be something totally different, like trapped wind/constipation, and have an easy fix.
Or you may do better on a different type of stimulant. Lots of options
