Mari,

I'm sorry that you experienced paresthesias last night. They ARE freaky, more so if you don't know what's causing them

You seem to get your fair share, and they are not common place... I would double check to make sure that they are not a potential side effect of one of your meds- medication information does get updated.
Seroquel causes a horrible kind of paresthesia that's more intense than those caused by my MS. I only have to deal with it if I can't fall asleep tho.

If the problem isn't med-related, and you continue to experience these type of symptoms, I'd consider getting it checked out

I am sorry for your symptoms.
Any med changes?
Are you taking any antipsychotics?

This morning I made SOME progress figuring out my medical insurance.


Our work changed our insurance but did not give us the cards yet.


Today I called to make an appt for a mamo -- the same mamo
that did not work out in Feb due a different kind of paperwork issue.

I also had to make what felt like a zillion phone calls to pdoc to
request that her staff refill my Klonopin.
Finally we talked on the phone. Staff said that they will let the pdoc know I need the Klonopin.

I have no appt on the books with her right now due to the insurance thing.

=-=-=-=
I did not tell pdoc's staff that my insurance changed.
I want my klonopin first. One instruction at a time.

my pdocs office failed to call in refills for klonipin. It sort of freaked me out because a little voice said that she is going to try to take it away from me.
I am dependent on it to sleep.
They called it in and with 2 refills so I am safe for now.

Right. And I freak out about the possibility of withdrawals. I have to remember to call the Pharmacy sometime Wed.

Our work changed insurance plans and not everything has been worked out yet.

It was very smart of you not to mention anything about your new insurance when you called to ask for the Klonopin script, Mari. I always forget about those withdrawals. I hope you can get your hands on your Klonopin today

You should be able to contact the insurance company using your SSN to get your ID number, pharmacy info, and explanation of benefits if you need it. But the HR department is responsible for making sure that you are not left in insurance limbo. They need to get their s*** together.

Not happy at the pharmacy when I could not pick up Gabapentin and
Klonopin. The Pharmacy dude saw me in tears.

He showed me a print out that shows I have 9 days left on one and 10 days of the other before I can refill.


Apparently I had the option to call pdoc but pdocs do not like to hear that you LOST Klonopin.


-=-=-=-
I prayed that I would find both when I got home.


I DID HAVE BOTH AT HOME. SO VERY RELIEVED.

It's awful that you had to go through that! I'm glad that things worked out tho

Do you have a specific container you put all your pill bottles in?
I have A LOT. I put them in what looks like a train case. I think it's for makeup because it's made by Caboodles. I just took the insert out. The only thing I leave out is Klonopin. I keep it in the drawer in the coffee table for convenience.
