Mary,

Sorry to That's the option that concerns me most (more than bringing the documented prescription with you).

Me too. It would depend in part on the training & rules of the foreign customs people, especially if it got your name on a "watch" list, and you later received a package that contained a controlled substance through the mail.

There may be some better information/wisdom here:
getting prescriptions abroad

getting prescriptions for controlled substance while abroad

Can your family abroad help you garner information?
