Citalopram lead-up
29 April 2021
Message to surgery
- When I ordered Citalopram several days ago nothing came. I phoned the Charlbury chemist who said no prescription had been received. I then tried again online but the message was GP has cancelled the order. Please see what I said about going off the rails elsewhere.
- In a recent telephone conversation with my GP she said that treatment for autism is virtually unavailable. I said I know the situation having served on the local Autism Partnership Board for several years before coming to this area three years ago.
- I have been taking Citalopram for several years and it is the only "treatment" offered by the NHS.
- Had a message asking me to contact the Chief Pharmacist. I avoid conversations like the plague and phoning is a nightmare. I often feel fobbed off. He can post me a letter or send an email.
- My GP is about to call me following an xray.
- She knows about the autism situation. I am not prepared to wait until then before Citalopram is back on my list so deal with it immediately please. Weekend is imminent and it will be over a week since I last took Citalopram. Update 7 May. Mr F telephoned here.
- This message won't go until I tick the " I confirm that my enquiry is not urgent," box but, obviously, it is urgent.

- Within a very short time, the message was uncancelled. More here.
