Red face sorry, stupid question about meds?

Sorry if this is a bit thick but how do you know where to get your meds done? is there a list somewhere of all the places that do them or is it just at your local drs?

I live in Rushden, Northants but also have 2 step children in hartlepool that will need meds doing too. Has anyone had their meds done in these areas?

One last thing is i have a 3month old daughter, will she need any meds doing?

Thanks for any advice guys.

We have a 6, 9 and 10 year old.

They have basic medicals performed (chest examination, height, weight, eyes exam, ear exam, etc.), but no x-rays and no blood.

It is important to make sure that you complete the form for them, including any medical history, etc.

Have to say that I don't envy you getting them to put a sample in a jar for analysis. Our kids found this very amusing!

Let me know if you have any queries (or PM me).

They send you all the places you can have it done when they request them to be carried out and then you just pick the cloest one to you, check the prices out as some are alot more expensive. Pete

Nice one!! BUPA hospital in Hull wanted to do twice as many blood tests as required and charge us nearly 4 times as much as the place we ended up going to in York!!! Robbers! Pete

Yes,your baby will also need a medical.You need to take her red book when you go,but she will not need an Xray.Our boy was two months old when we had our meds,his was pretty basi,checked his weight and hest,did not do urine or blood test.
