Had a operation and got a infection so had to go to Hull royal A&E.
I tell my drug worker who then cancels my 7 day pick up batched scripts, I was only on 2nd day in too. Constantly on supervised, can never get more then a week pick up. I gave negative tests for 7 yeas, an A&E visit is enough to be put on supervised which is mind boggling to me, specially if you've had a operation or got a infection.
I had supervised consumption while in hospital and then on release I had to walk to Renew in the rain in a t shirt and shorts to get a script from Renew which was supervised consumption 6 days a week after I've just got out of hospital and wait on 7 day pick ups.So when I really needed help they kicked me down even more. I could of got my 7 day pick up and went home to rest like everyone else does after a operation but instead I had to ring renew for a script and do a 5 mile walk to the chemist 6 days a week for supervised consumption.
Talk about kick a man when his down, when I challenge my worker and subscriber I felt patronised and said I need mental health services.They have told my Dr that I am a ex IV user and ex alcoholic and Ive never been either, I've complained and it has not been fixed.I don't know what I did so wrong to get put back on supervised, I've never gave a positive test or missed pick ups, they say it is the rules but a week before they let me have my 7 day pick up through my operation.Its mind boggling to think that you get penalised for trying to get help. Staff and managers cant give me an answer when I ask why I am back on supervised. They just said they dunno.I feel like every few months they will build me up and I get kicked back down by their so called rules but it always at the worst times like xmas, birthdays, operations like they go out there way to make it harder for you over festive periods.I got accused of missing appointments and put on supervised when my actual key worker didnt even turn up to work that day. The supervised consumption is 6 days a week to so you have no life, I dont know who makes these rules up but they need to come give it a try if its so easy, its breaking me and making my life not worth living as all I do is keep people in a job and I fell that they couldn't give a damn about my health yet are paid to care about it, 7 years now Ive had a nightmare with methadone treatment, I came into treatment through subutex and they banned them and got me hooked on methadone.Through covid and xmas the Dr changed my pick up day to a Sunday when I pick up on a Thursday, I was out of treatment and had to sit in renew all xmas and then had to do supervised 6 day a week consumption for 6 months, mind boggling it is.I cant recommend this service.
