Tried multiple times all week to get GP on the phone (can't leave the house to go down) honestly.. They open their medicine book when I question anything to do with UC or jpouch,  I know they can't know everything, but geez why not call me back later when you know what your talking about!!! If I was to do that with my customers I wouldn't have any..
Eventually writes a script for what I asked for )as he couldn't recommend anything) Lomotil only to be told by every chemist that it has been discontinued, leperomide is the only option.. It doesn't work for me!!
They are suppose to know what to do/offer when the med isn't working.. Just a blank looking useless pr*ck!!

If I was a doctor.. I would be a good doctor, not a useless prick who just offers antibiotics or paracetamol arrrrrgh!!!
No sight for a break.. Thanks Doc

I did a bit of research and it appears that the only UK manufacturer ceased production, due to reduced need. Did your doctor order it as co-phenotrope? It has not been available as lomotil in the UK for some time. If co-phenotrope is also off the NHS formulary, ask about paragoric or codeine. There must be something that can help you!
