Pharmacies don't usually keep Invicorp in stock due the the temperature needs; they just order it as needed. However, it all comes from the same couple of warehouses in England so if one can get it so can the others. Our pharmacy took the prescription from us in the morning, ordered it by phone and the refrigerated delivery was at 5pm. They did mention that the refrigerated delivery van yesterday morning was involved in a road accident but there must be more than 2 vans to service the north of England.

Yes I did read its kept refrigerated, I presented my prescription a week past and was called on Tuesday there and it was apparently Loyds delivery guy that said there was a problem at manufacturer end, either way have referred back to my consultant who issued the prescription, just wait see now what happens now.

Had problems since surgery and aftercare has fell far short of expectations, so all this now doesn't surprise me In the slightest.

No but hey ho,

From having to chase up on getting staples out , then getting cathter removed as info hadn't been sent to local hospital post surgery, then to a very rushed (2 minute consultation) 3 months after surgery.

Happy the surgery went well with no continence issues and psa at less than 0.05, the rest has been a trial.

Both my consultant and gp got a lengthy complaint from me just recently, and now all this with meds....

Take cialis, that's helped with circulation, Viridol duo was a ball ache, literally, Invicorp I was hopeful for but that just doesn't seem to be going my way either...

And to think, I had no idea about prostate cancer till I had a throat problem last July that pointed to cancer and had tonsils removed and biopsies taken, that was clear and now I end up here..... Been one thing after another....

It took my local pharmacy a month or so to get Invicorp. Since then, no problems. It just doesn’t seem to come through the same supply chain as other medications - I think Lyn once explained this on a different thread????

Anyway, I know my pharmacist went to a lot of effort but once the system was set up, I had no problems. I’m even being prescribed 10 injections per month. Don’t tell anyone though as I think there’s officially a limit
