Psychotomy

So, as I’ve mentioned before, I have some issues with my psychiatrist.

Of course, both times now it’s been partially my fault.  Last time I forgot to take my pills with me.  This time I thought my meds had 1 refill left.  I swear I checked that, but apparently I did it POORLY.  Anyway, last night I call in my scrip for a refill and find out that I have none left (check bottle, well hell).  They’ll contact the doc in the AM for approval for an added refill.

This morning the Dr’s calls the house, so I call them back.  They can’t authorize the refill without a followup scheduled, so I schedule a followup.  “I have an opening on the 23rd” “I leave for vacation before that”  “Oh, how about the 24th?”

Finally schedule a followup, and she’ll give the forms to the doc and he can approve them when he gets back.  “He’s only in on monday’s, so that would be the 23rd” “I’m out of town already” (this sounds familiar) “You could try asking the pharmacy if they’d give you some pills” duh?  hello?  that’s why they called you?

And seriously?  man’s only in one day a week?  wtf?  Nice work if you can get it!  OI!  But they can’t give it to one of the other doctors (that’s there 5 days a week) because the docs don’t like to do that.  Seriously?  He’s going to say yes anyway, and the other doc can’t figure out how to read a file to verify something?

UGH!  Now I’m hoping I can find something from a previous scrip to take with me.  Because I’m just not sure that a week without my pills would be good.
