I actually found out today - from our palliative care nurse - what a locum is. Our doctor used to use one of them, but not in recent times. And the likely reason is the shortage of them; locums are increasingly hard to find in this region.

My dad is lactose intolerant, so he can't eat/drink the vast majority of things that they recommend. I don't know what a locum is, but we managed to find a doctor to help us out, even though what he did he technically shouldn't have done. So that's a relief, until next time. But things have to fucking well change now. I'm not putting up with this shit again. I hate doctors. I really, really hate them with a passion.

So, dad's oxycontin tablets run out tomorrow, we don't have another prescription for them, our regular doctor is STILL away, he didn't leave another doctor to take over while he's away, and it seems near impossible to get any other doctor to help out. AND he's having more and more trouble swallowing food (when he does eat), AND he's having more and more trouble breathing. Boy oh boy, each day just gets better than the fucking last. I'm really not sure how much more of this fun I can take...

14352 Meh, I'm not fussed if this goes off course a little with the numbering. As long as it's not deliberate, I'm not bothered.
