Hi guys, this is not a question, more of a venting comment.
As you all know, I have been having Dr. troubles for a few years now. Alot of you can emphasize with me. Well, I thought I had found the Dr. and was so very happy about our last appointment.
I'm going to a Vascular Surgeon about my feel and legs, and getting a bone scan about my hands. I even got my prescriptions with REFILLS, ( which is unheard of here) ..... and I was a happy woman coming home. I thought this Dr. was the best, well.......................................
My hubby went the next day to Walmart to fill the prescription.... got home and gave me them. ( I cried) when I saw the amount of pills that I have to take, and it hit me like a brick .... Well,
upon reading the instructions on the pills, my Baclofen was doubled, ( and I did not know it) , and my Gabapentin was upped to 3600 mgs. per day, and I did not get my Elavil though I was supposed to ......
The pharmacy called me, and asked me about the new instructions, and I was shocked too.
Called tlhe Dr.'s office the next morning, and told them what happened, and as per usual, the Dr. must be having a BAD day. Well, gee whiz, do all Dr's have BAD DAYS......????
So, I got my Elavil and 25mg. ( so it was doubled) , and I knew that one only...... now, that the instructions are on the bottles, if God forbid, I could not get my own meds, someone would be giving me all the wrong amounts...... ( what do we do now) ... I wrote the new instructions and taped them over t he ones on the bottle, and hope that someone would take those instructions instead.
I'm so frustrated, and my depression is now back, because of the DAMMMMMM Dr's,
Thanks for listening, I know that everyone has their own stuff to deal with, and for some reason, this one just got me....
Hoping to feel better soon,
Candy
