This week:

The pharmacist talked me through it very fast and I nodded at all of it and retained about a third. I have written down the bits I remember and I will ask again at the review.

Nothing has happened yet, which nobody had warned me about. I think I expected to feel something immediately, and instead I made a cup of tea and put a wash on.

I want to write this down before I forget how frightened I was, because I suspect in three months I will not believe it. Twenty minutes of standing there. Then eight seconds. Then it was over and I felt faintly ridiculous.

Ta.

This is the second time this week somebody has described that and I am now going to mention it at my own review.

I am eleven weeks behind you and this is the first thing I have read that sounded like my week.

Would you be willing to say more about how you raised it? I have an appointment on the 14th and I keep losing my nerve.

No wisdom, just: I am sorry. That sounds genuinely hard.
