Overall they provided better care for her than I expected.

As well, the doctor who referred her to psych reduced the dose of prednisone about 20%, which we've wanted to do for a long time.

Right now I'm overwhelmed with the additional meds, which I spent over $62 for (with insurance). Our situation is almost the same as before except:

1. My wife's pain is greatly reduced (a good thing).

2. We don't have enough KPin to last until the next PDoc appointment.
When is the next appointment? Can you move it up? Or call and see if you can get something just enough sent over to fill the gap (they might not because it’s a controlled substance, but it’s worth a shot you do have a good reason)?

Glad some good came out of it.
