lost my point will edit later

So here's my problem, WV medical screwed us over by not closing our case to get medical in FL for September. Trust me I did everything by the book and then some but it happened, grr I hate assistance. This has caused a whole host of issues. All of our doctors appointments must be canceled. Since we receive medical in another state we can't even go under the uninsured. If my husband and I want our meds we have to nix our beautiful trip home and add 5 hours to our trip.

My son's maybe only got 60% of his skin left from picking at it. I've resorted to teaching him how to use cover up but he needs an antibiotic, his asthma med, and something to help the picking again. He's only been unmedicated for 3 months and no longer has a scalp, is now bald in spots, and looks like he has the worst case of the chicken pox. He was not able to get meds before leaving the state because he of a screw up from his therapist. Our center refuses to write prescription for him because he's considered a new patient that has yet to see a pdoc. Will urgent care help?

My husband needs his abilify or he goes down hill in a week or less and it turns into a crisis for him. So a visit to our old state is require nixing our awesome scenic trip "home", which we don't have until Oct. 7th anyway. I'm gone, so travel isn't the best idea for me, 4 hrs in counting trying to write this post. Yes I'm med withdrawing I want to see how this goes. I had a point and questions but I lost it.

I've had coverage probs in the lovely state I live in. Urgent care didn't help. But ER, sorta. Some meds you can get a supply at the ER, for x number of days & a referral. (The referral was useless). Some you can't. Like ADD/ADHD med. I finally got my son an appt today - after a frantic phone call yesterday to yet another office. Everyone else had a 2 month wait when I called in August, even the doc he saw a year ago. He had an appt booked for the 16th of this month but how long could he white knuckle it before breaking? I did not want to get him checked in when it was clear he had a good balance on meds & that's all he needed. He thought he could hang on.

Having to watch him suffer was horrid. The last hospitalization almost led to his death (vitals bottomed out from meds & they didn't listen when he started to black out). He had finally found a combo that works. As an adult now he is uninsured.

I get so mad at the stonewalling or lack of coverage of mental health. Why isn't it taken as seriously as say diabetes?

I'm so sorry you & your family are going through this. You've heard my tales of woe.

I'm worried about you. Hope you all get your meds asap.

I use to live in the county your moving to.. The entire area is so overpopulated its not even funny, so everything takes forever . Walk in clinics just wont touch psych meds its too much of a liabilty . Er's you might get a few days worth.

I dont mean to be a Debbie Downer but its very hard to get all the paperwork done and it be ok'd then appointments with doctors is a long wait. My advice is go to the office daily and just sit waiting in hopes they either get tired of you waiting and help you sooner or there is a no show..

Im so sorry this is happening

So new appointments
Me-11/18 for meds
H- 11/19 for meds
S- 10/14 for meds

New T appointments
Me 10/20
H 10/21
S 10/10

Should I call other clinics to see if there's earlier appointments?

Yes. Do what you need to do. Do not let anything get in your way. Do not leave any stone unturned.

Yes! Call!

Call until your fingers fall off

So, after feeling like I've been surounded by idiots for awhile. Kind of lost it on my husband because the butcher didn't have Turkey and he neglected to tell me until. I had got everything out and cut for the sandwich. Unfortunately I kinda.trapped his mom in the kitchen while fliping out. :/ . So my father in law is taking our car to make sure it's good. Wednesday we're going to the zoo and then leave Thursday to head to my sister's.

I need help finding a coping mechanisms to deal with my husband while at my sister's. I don't want to scare her kids (I scared Miguel) or feel like we need to leave. I really can't deal with being annoyed. Any suggestions that can help. I'm still mad he made me restart meds

Oh also he doesn't want to find a new center until we're sure our new house is a forever home since they already have all of our files.

I feel so worried what you all are dealing with. You really did your homework & research to make a smooth transition. Now these jerks are messing it up. I want to say you can make it til October. It's horrible they're making you wait. Especially for a child. There's just all this red tape bs. Things will get better after October just hang in there. My best coping skill is texting my bp friend - you. I'm here for you this time. Will old t have phone calls with you? Make recommendations to the new doctors? Will old doctors let you fill prescriptions out of state call them in or mail them to you?

I have my scripts at Walgreens which can be filled in other states. I think the exception is controlled substances like amphetamines and benzos.

The problem is my insurance will change about a month and a half before I see new pdoc and most of the medication requires prior authorization which can't happen before seeing the new pdoc. We can't afforded the meds out of pocket but don't qualify for the companies assistance program because we have insurance.

I'm thinking I may have to do what ex T wanted, as soon as I step into the state start IOP the next day even if that means going through the ER. She wanted me to stay in IOP until I trusted my new medical team. Apparently I'm messed up enough to automatically qualify for IOP.

Does anyone know how to go about getting into IOP in the Tampa bay area?

The only ones that I was aware of were going IOP after a IP visit... Or Your Pdoc has to order it.. Maybe things have changed since I lived there. I hope it has for your sake.

Hang in there

I think that's why she wanted me to go through the ER. Which means either she thinks I'll be a lot worse then I am OR I'm a lot worse then I think I am.

I dont think its a case of being "worse" its just the way the system works .. I know you are very much against IP... but maybe push will come to shove and you may do something you certainly dont want to (going IP)

The main thing is keep posting here .. We will all offer all the support in the world to help you get things working in the right direction

I really hope it doesn't come to that.

So after being curled up in a ball of anxiety all last night I broke down and took my prn this morning. I guess I'm sicker than I think. I wish I had a trusted T.

I'm glad u took it. Are u sleeping? Doing any better?

Im glad you took it ... Can you keep taking it ? I think it would help you during such a stressful time

I swear my inlaws are going to think I'm an addict or something. How many excuses my husband, sister in law, and cousin in law make excuses for me. Either I'm sick, withdrawing, or whatever I'm supprised they every ask anymore. This morning I was asked if I was feeling better. :0

I don't think I could take it daily. It makes me groggy, empty, and makes me gain weight. I won't however make it so that it ruins my "vacation. "
