Towards the end of November, I had received two e-mails from one of the GPs at my local surgery. However, as I am not in the habit of regularly checking my e-mails, I was unaware of their existence until last weekend.
One of the two e-mails included a link for an annual review of the anti-depressant medication I take. Of late I have been feeling as though everything and anything (no matter how simple) is an effort, and requires far more energy than I have at my disposal. As a result of how I've been feeling, it had taken me until this morning to act on that e-mail.
I clicked on the link, but when the web page loaded I discovered I couldn't respond, because the medication review requested by the GP had expired. There was nothing in the e-mail stating that I needed to respond by a certain date, or within a specified number of days.
To be clear, I don't feel any sense of distress about this, and I certainly won't be losing any sleep over it. I understand the need for the annual medication review, but if the online link for it was time sensitive, then it just strikes me as a tad ridiculous.
