I did have lab work done that day, but he prescribed them before he saw my lab work. I walked out of the appointment with him having sent the script to my pharmacy, and then I went for blood to be drawn.

I know that I'm certainly not pregnant. I've been celibate for six years. So, that's out. I'm questioning endometriosis as well. I don't think I have that, but whatever is going on is something on the serious end. I'm not sure what so I'm looking forward to seeing my obgyn.
heres a thought..... some places do not bill insurance for over the counter meds like vitamins... maybe its possible that your doctor gave you prenatal vitamins so that your insurance will pay for you taking a daily vitamin. that happened to a friend of mine. prenatal vitamins are just like regular vitamins, just in a bit higher dosages. some doctors do prescribe them so that insurance will pay for them when they wont normal brands like One A Day.
Thanks for this!
