Wow, that sounds like a nightmare! I'm so sorry you had to go through that! I think I would have marched myself into the doctor's office and asked for the refills, NOW, if that were happening to me. 7 days is just too long to be in hell...
How are you doing now that you have your meds again?
I don't like being dependent on meds for much the same reasons. Things go wrong. You're at the mercy of someone else and their prescription pad. Or worse, an insurance company's formulary list.
