Mum took Lagevrio, it works. Testing positive on a Sunday is a bloody nuisance when you need medical attention or advice. Mum went through it.
Key thing is, keep calm, don't let the stress make it worse.

I ended up being prescribed Lageviro and have been on it for a couple of days, it seems to be working.

But.......it still took too much trouble to get what I always qualified for. Of course, there is a very good reason why these meds are not more easily obtained.................

At full price, a five-day course of this stuff costs $1120 compared to a PBS price of about $50. Now, I had the option to pay that price from the beginning, and had I not had the information from a doctor friend, I would have simply jockeyed up the cash.
