Sadly, I was down to the last few of my meds, I dont even have enough to last through tomorrow. He stole the remaining bulk of my medication...of course.

I found the bulk of my pain meds missing, filed a police report along with the other things file against this weirdo. I just started seeing a new doctor who seems really great. He a neuro/phsyatrist and is revamping my medications as the current pain meds I'm on are starting not to work. I have never ran out of medications early or had them stolen. Even with the police report they wont refill them early. Saying it's their office policy. I asked if there was something they could prescribe me in the mean time they said no. They did say "if i can;t handle the pain" to go to the ER or Urgent care???

I said that is ridiculous. Now I'm afraid of going through withdrawals as med prescription will not refill until 11/20. Anyone have any ideas on what I can do?


p.s. I forgot to add we found this weirdo was entering our house while we were not there, hence the stolen meds... Sooo creepy. The locks have been changed now!
HELP! I'm afraid the withdrawals will lead to a flare-up but do not think an ER visit should be necessary!


Try going or contacting the person who originally prescribed the meds!!!

Default In hell!!!!!
No refill given. And I do NOT want to go to the ER. I am in full blown withdrawals right now....super fun on top of the severe pain in my arm......so great, but only have to wait till Wednesday so hopefully I can "tough" it out until them.......fml

They said it was an office policy and the prescribing doc is under the same clinic so same policy I seriously feel like just chopping off my arm

Go over to the creepy guys house. Hog tie him, and ransacked his house till you find your meds. Then kick the tar out of him for each pill he took. At least it sounds good in theory. Then kick him once more and say thats incase you went through my underwear ya perv. Im feeling bloody minded.

Trust me I felt like doing waaay more than that. I am a very passive person, i can tolerate a lot. But you cross that line and mess with my family and I get nasty quick! ..you know the really weird thing....I know who took them and the police "cant do anything"!! With all the laws and hoops and everything we have to do just to get our medication....i seems ridiculous that someone can steal them with absolutely NO repercussions! Seems like they have the laws backwards.

But my arm hurts too bad to hogtie and beat someone up right now....anyone want to help??

Songbird, you'll get through this horrible time...but I'm so sorry you're having to just 'cope' until you can get your meds replaced....

Maybe work out a 'worse case scenario' plan for keeping your meds in the future - never keep them all in the same place, maybe have a few different hiding places or get a lockable cash box to keep them in. It's so sad, but unfortunately there are clearly folk out there who are prepared to do some stupid/creepy/dangerous things to get hold of drugs....

Good luck on Wednesday I'll be thinking of you.

Bram.
