#hartmanns — Public Fediverse posts

Can I buy all the tools for an IV from a #medical supply shop online? I’m in #Australia.

I need: An IV set, #Hartmanns Solution, & #Magnesium Sulphate Heptahydrate (will have prescription). Do I really need an expensive IV stand?

I can pay a registered #nurse to come over & give it as long as materials are provided. (I’d pay any volunteer.)

#GP should be arranging this but he’s a raging arsehole.

I can get (pay) a registered #nurse to come over and do it as long as materials, #medication, and instructions are provided. (Nobody has volunteered so far although I would pay you because I’d rather all the money go to you than be sucked up by an agency. Still looking for anyone licensed to do IVs. #Nurses #NursePractitioner #GPs #Doctors #Paramedics #Phlebotomists …)

My GP should be arranging this but he’s a raging arsehole so I have to do everything myself.

Please #Boost

Are there any #doctors #specialists #GPs in #Melbourne giving IV or IV push #Hartmanns with #MagnesiumSulphate? For #POTS #Dysautonomia #OrthostaticIntolerance #ChronicPain, and #Migraine that’s becoming intractable.

HAVE REFERRAL. Totally legal. But doctors hate giving them. I used to get in migraine clinic until funding dried up. IV drip clinics don’t do it at all or only do if doctors jump through hoops (referral writer GP won’t). Very expensive too. I’m stuck.

Cannot absorb #magnesium unless IV and leech #potassium. Will feel very sick until eventually… Most docs don’t get it.

Any #nurses want to administer this? It can improve functionality to 50% but nobody will give it anymore and I’m stuck in bed for no reason.

Can I have my life back please 😩?

Please #boost it shouldn’t be so hard to get #medical help.
