The problem was my pdoc went on vacation and I couldn't get my meds filled and I been having bad withdrawals I complained to the nurse if I didn't get my meds by tomorrow I would go to Er. And 15 min later she called and my meds will be ready tomorrow topamax is the new pill so I have to meet with crisis tomorrow to see if I'm stable to take them
I do think we will all experience this more, with time, with health reforms, etc. Hang in there, I know it's not easy! I also believe new and alternative treatments are on the horizon, and while some of them might be useless, hopefully and I think that--some will be beneficial. In the end, we must manage as best we can. Have had lots of diagnoses, like you, and I know it's tough. wishing you the very best!
