    Oh dear! I'd ask for a new one as they do deliveries all over the place at all times. They are supposed to be coming my way tomorrow but I think i will cancel as my throat is constantly reacting, I've got 2 left anyway and I need the fridge space for Christmas.

    Oh. I have no idea - could your GP or local pharmacy oblige with an emergency replacement? I reckon it's worth asking - maybe your hospital could donate one . . . . . I remember that you don't drive but this needs to be sorted - given the time of year I would write off H@H as a solution to the problem they've inadvertently caused. :wink: DD

    Do you have a travel sharps bin you can use for the short term? Alcura supply them. Failing that I reckon maybe the doctor or pharmacist like DD cleverly suggested.

    Remember Tony had this problem last year on his hols. He went to a Spanish pharmacy and they disposed of it for him. I'm sure an English pharmacy would do the same.
