1. Current docs refuses parnate,i slowly hang on to what i have.
2. Beging to look for other docs,call one after another.
3. Here usualy one of the following: He/she isnt taking new patients now.
He or she doesent accept that insurance.
4.He or she has a opening next month.
So i finaly find one,take the month.Month comes they ask me tons of questions until they hear i mostly want to start my common meds up first before anything.
Upon hearing its parnate they also refuse,as many many many here have.
I leave now with a near two months of no meds,and have at least one more to wait before i can even imagine sitting in front of a new doc with the chance of getting it.
Whew lol,in a nutshell in this small area your not seeing a doc until at least one months time,and first appts usualy dont qualify for slide in cancealtions.
Its very scary.
Mostly also because the drug,parnate is so unique there is a like substitute to use to kinda wing the down time you know.
