Default Ritalin to help with lack of sleep. Mdoc wants me to check with current pdoc

Hi,


At the mdoc's office today I explained that I am extra-ordinarily sleep deprived. I told her that I was unable to fill out a simple form at Human Resources earlier in the day due to probable low brain function. I begged the girl in the office to fill out the form and date it for me.

Mdoc asked about meds that would help with staying alert in the daytime.
I told her that I used to be on Ritalin and found it very helpful except for the humungous hassle the state gov puts me through to get the med because it is a "controlled substance."

She thought I should be motivated to go through the hassle to take medication (ritalin) that helps me.
I told her I cannot deal with very much.

She is willing to write the prescriptions for me if I check with my pdoc (or her suggested neruo/ psych).

M
