I can try again, but I expect the same canned response. I also asked this current lady if she was a doctor or nurse, and she blatantly ignored my question. "What is going on?" she said instead of answering my question. So I'm guessing that's a no to her being a medical person. So I don't think she "gets it" with this akathisia crap. Then again, maybe my pdoc doesn't get it either since he keeps brushing me off.
I would get a new pdoc, but the waiting lists are long everywhere. It's frustrating when you have to go without a pdoc for 6 months like I had to. Never again!

Well defiantly express all this to your GP when you see them next , I’m wondering if they will give you a script.. Cogentin basically works or it doesn’t , it’s not a scheduled drug not addictive. It’s not pure gold or silver. It’s literally less than 20.00 a think thru GoodRx.
I am glad you have not quit your meds outright , that could really throw you down the rabbit whole.
Can you call around and just get on other pdocs lists ? Might as hell have one lined up for the future if he just blows you off about complaints about his phone blocker.
When do you see him next ?? You can always call a walk in clinic and just ask if it’s something they would consider prescribing ?? And then ER , just take your meds bottles with so they can see your not abusing any.
I wish I was there I’d have a chat with his idiot worker, I’d likely drive her to tears and I’d be happy about it. Those people need to experience this hell for a month and see how they handle it !!!
