@BBCMorningLive @xandvt Creon, both 10,000 and 25,000 for pancreatic insufficiency! So stressful, suspected shortages to 2026, and some awful advice on treating the symptoms with Imodium!

@Edinburgh_CC Bin collection

[Gemma Monaghan @gemchem]

@Edinburgh_CC @novice1965 Can you confirm that you have the information correct that we haven’t had a collection in 4 weeks now?

[Gemma Monaghan @gemchem]

@novice1965 @Edinburgh_CC
We’re in eh17 too -rubbish is now blowing places & people resorting to not recycling, which will significantly impact our environment.I understand there’s a catch up,but when is the EH17 collection scheduled for?We don’t have a car to get to a centre.

[The City of Edinburgh Council @Edinburgh_CC]

@novice1965 Hello, the team will get to this as soon as they can, You can also take household waste to a recycling centre https://t.co/L1P5XIaZ3W thanks, Sophie

[Gemma Monaghan @gemchem]

@Edinburgh_CC @novice1965 I should add, I don’t think the website is up to date. It’s not clear that the Mortonhall area hasn’t had green bin collection.

[Gemma Monaghan @gemchem]

@Edinburgh_CC @novice1965 Hi Sophie, I’ve viewed this and reported it, the first time it was missed. EH17 has now had 2 missed recycling collections. Can you please tell me when we will get a collection?

[Gemma Monaghan @gemchem]

@asda my order is late, I’ve had no update, and no-one is answering the phone. Am I just to wait? Usually a text comes through with an updated estimated delivery time.

@HeatherDoranDr And exclaim “yuk, I don’t like that”, without even knowing what it is

[Gemma Monaghan @gemchem]

@HeatherDoranDr Edinburgh are now removing funded places at private nurseries for those living outside the city. So hammering working parents commuting in and having the childcare local to their work!

@Schwarzenegger @ArnoldSports What time will the session be in the UK this weekend? Does anyone know; planning travel!

[FrogstonPS @FrogstonPS]

A massive thank you to @standrewstimber who kindly donated some materials to help us build a new, stronger chicken coop, as well as some soil for our farm to fork project.

@OSICild what is the timeframe on someone reviewing an online form? My husband filled one out re membership and accessing data for his Masters, but hasn’t heard back. Thanks, Gemma

[Gemma Monaghan @gemchem]

@HeatherDoranDr £20 to see home alone 🙈 I do want to go - blasted work!

[Gemma Monaghan @gemchem]

@cftrust A few things - does this impact people in Scotland? Of someon me is on Orkambi does that mean they’ll progress onto Kaftrio as part of the deal, or do you need to be on the specific modulator to keep access? Is there any guidance on what to put in the consultation ?

[Gemma Monaghan @gemchem]

My excitement at getting tickets to see @4pmWineTimeBaby is OFF THE CHART. Disproportionately so probably. #bringonthebeefs

[Gemma Monaghan @gemchem]

@JoshLJ24 My 5 year old is struggling doing his physio - he doesn’t think anyone else has CF and it’s become super hard. I don’t suppose you have an inspirational video in the bank for him? 😩😊 xx

[Gemma Monaghan @gemchem]

@BenMudge_ my son (5) has CF and is struggling with physio and feeling down about his CF. I’ve shown him photos and videos of you; he said he’d love to meet you! Impossible I know, but could send him a message??

[Gemma Monaghan @gemchem]

@RachaelBass15 @abihalstead Is it sad?! I’m so emotional reading about it 🙈
