PDoc refused meds - what should I do?

Posted by garnet71 on May 24, 2009, at 11:49:48

So I paged him and he called me back and said he could not: refill my xanax, up my dose of buspirone, or start me on klonopin and that I have to go to the ER. He said he could do nothing. wtf?

I had been prescribed .25 xanax for 30 days; script due to be refilled on June 3rd. So he asked me when I got the script and I was honest w/him and told him May 3rd and told him I had to take extra xanax this week (when I get panic attacks-I had to take 4 of the .25 each time) since I started up back at grad school again....Last I was there in the bldg., I almost had a nervous breakdown/severe anxiety, so the memory brought back panic attacks...

He said this after I mentioned to him that last we spoke, he referred me to a psycopharmacologist. I shouldn't have even mentioned that, but was trying to tell him I'd be out of scripts.. He said "you'll have to call him"; I said I haven't even seen him yet. Okay, I could not get an appt. w/this new doc for close to 2 months; yet was given 30 days worth of scripts. I told him this. I realize he didn't have my file in front of him, but all my scripts expire June 3rd, yet I don't have an appt. w/new PDoc until June 15th. Am I supposed to just quit all my meds cold turkey from June 3rd to June 15th? I don't get it.

What should I do? I am not going to the f*ck*ng ER, because 1) I have no health ins.; 2) i will just be acccused of being a drug seeker. This has happend before, and it was a traumatic experience.

Maybe I should go out and get Kava or passionflower, or alchohol. I can't call a primary care physician; I haven't been there in a year or 2, except a new one, though from the same practice who recently prscribed me 20 pills of Xanax when I was having bronchial spasms from adderall, knowing the .25 from PDoc was insufficient at the time, but they wouldn't know me well enough to add more.

I am calling him back Tuesday. In fact, I think I'm going to write a letter and fax it to the office. If he leaves me w/o meds, and I have a nervous breakdown, I am not putting up with this.
