For those of you who have your pdoc's cell phone number, would you call on a Sat if you felt you needed it or would you benzo it out until Mon?

I'm a wimp when it comes to stuff like that so honestly, I would benzo it out. However, that's not what I would recommend to anyone else Be brave!!

Edit: After reading your other post, you should definitely call. My benzo runs are for more minor issues. I feel terrible that you're in so much distress... Please call

Thank you all! I texted him and he called back already. He advised me to start taking my max dose of Klonapin again and to take Haldol prn. He said he will follow up with me. I hope it works.

Many times they have someone to take the calls, but you ended up getting the real thing. How nice. Some find disappointment when they get a recording machine.

I would call if I needed help (or in my case, email).

That's cool that your pdoc would give you their weekend phone number. Mine basically tells me to call her (during the week) or go to the hospital (on the weekend) if I have a situation that needs immediate attention. I'm glad you were able to get through to him and get the help you need!
