hugs and hopes that you are having a better day!

Oh Lori...I am so sorry to hear this. I know how frustrating it is and sometimes I just want to slap these doctors for their inability to be compassionate with us. It is simply not okay for you to be in pain without refills on your meds for a month. I'm glad you got them from your primary care...but it's also sad he would say something like this is the last time. Every situation should be looked at on an individual basis...and in THIS situation you needed him to write the refills. I keep you in my thoughts every day with the hope that you get answers and relief ASAP.
