The lack of #JoinedUpThinking in #Healthcare in #Ireland can be incredibly frustrating at times.
My #PainSpecialist won't prescribe #NSAID without signoff from my #Endocrinologist
Yet he won't talk directly to my #Endo 🤷‍♀️
Instead it's a letter to my #GP for him to request an opinion from my #Endo, and then write back to him with a view to seeing me again in 6 months.
All whilst I'm creased in pain.
But?
I can have all the Oxy I can swallow🤷‍♀️
