Welcome to Neuro Talk. I am sorry you had trouble with the pharmacy. Am I correct that you were taking oxicodone 30 mg. 4 pills, 4 times a day? I got a bit confused when you said your doctor then changed your script. Any time there is an error, they look at the patient first, unfortunate but true. I think there are so many folks abusing the meds, that pharmacies become frightened. Off hand, the 4 pills 4 x's a day does sound like a high dose, but it isn't up to the pharmacy to judge you. Your meds are between you and your physician. I go to walgreens, and have known them for 15 years now, and consider them friends. Seek a pharmasist, who knows your physician if you can. My guys do know who my pain specialist is, and this physicians very good reputation. I am sorry you wound up in tears over it. Also I can relate to metal in the body and the pain we get from it. ginnie
