I had my phone consultation with a gp about having my tubes removed about 5 months ago. She agreed to refer me. I had an email a few weeks ago asking if I still wish for the treatment which I said yes. According to my NHS app the referral was only done on the 26th of Jan 2026.
What has your waiting time been like?
I’m up to 30mg Medikinet XL with a 5mg top up. Its great when it’s working for the few hours, but then will follow with the crash of extreme tiredness and soo irritable, angry and snappy. It really lifts my mood also, but does the absolute complete opposite when it’s wearing off. And the headaches are awful!
I find higher doses way too intense, it’s like I need 5mg every 1.5 hours or something 😆.
I am also so fed up of eating protein every few hours to “help” the meds and drinking loads of water. It feels like it has to be so perfectly balanced to be worth it? Then I think I’ve cracked it, but a few days later will be totally differen. Has anyone else found this whole this also like this? 😪
