@ Little Cat, I'm not sure what that link is supposed to send me to? But thank you for trying.
I went to Urgent Care today, and that was a bit frustrating, because I had to give the whole story to a doctor, and she didn't want to prescribe because she thought I should see a pdoc, and I said, yes, I agree, I'm just trying to get through to when I can get an appointment. Well, she gave me a script, not for the right dosage, instead of .5 mg she gave me .25, and only for 6 days. I don't know how long it will take me to get into see a pdoc in the new medical provider system I signed up for. I'm going to call tomorrow to see if I can get an appointment for next week just using my Medicare. If I can't, then I can't, and I will wait, but I'm going to at least try to see if I can see someone next week. I hate to see a pdoc that I will have to immediately change from to a new one, but I just have to do what I have to do right now in terms of at least getting some klonopin. As far as the other things, the urgent care doc said, as I knew she would, and as I agree, that I get full bloodwork and a head CT. (I wanted to joke she should just give me a lobotomy already.) But she didn't give me a referral for it. So I guess I'll just be waiting until after June 1.
I don't think they realize how waiting many weeks to get care causes so many problems. When you're so sick, it's not like it's just an inconvenience. Sigh...
