STILL WAITING ON THE DR!!!!

woke up at 6:30am and called the drugstore and found out that the dr. still hadnt called in my refill!!! he didnt call me back last night either. the people at his office said they would have him call me!! im completely at his mercy!!! i wonder if they arent telling him that i have an appointment on the 23rd. you know how they dont want to refill your prescription if you dont come in for an appointment. i think the drug store will lend me a few but they wont do that indefinitely. i know he makes his rounds at the hospital in the mornings and then is in the office in the afternoon. i think im going to call him at the hospital and have him paged otherwise i may end up there! now wouldnt that be a nice place to spend christmas? i know. i shouldnt be thinking of worst case scenarios!! im just feeling panicky right now!!! yall may be tired of hearing about this stuff but it helps me to write about it. i gotta gripe about it to somebody and i dont think my family wants to hear about it anymore. if you dont want to hear it just dont read it. (im not trying to be rude just stating a fact). i got on here to look up the number of the hospital and got side tracked by this so im going to call the hospital now. hopefully ill have better luck this time!

I getting refils that need a doctors call. You are at the mercy of the pharmacy getting in touch with the correct person at the doctors office and at the mercy of the doctors office. There are a lot of places that can go wrong. I am sorry you are having troubles. If you call the doctor and tell them you have an appointment or tell them you will be in the hospital without your meds, you will probably get somewhere.

I hope - good luck! (I actually have 1 refill on all my meds right now and they are due on the 24th - suprisingly enough -Walgreens said it would be open)

I always say to my shrink's receptionist - "Look, you're dealing with crazy people. What did you expect?" Also - they are the ones that say don't go off the meds and then lolly-gag providing. I say stake out the hospital.
