horrible story with ADHD medication HELP!!!?
Question by : horrible story with ADHD medication HELP!!!?
please read this before answering because i dont want any dumb answers please.
ok, so i was needing a refill on my vyvanse, so i scheduled an appointment with my psychiatrist. for some reason, they didnt have me down for an appointment AND you need to see him every time you want a refill on medication. unfortunately, he had no openings so i had to wait a week WITHOUT my medication to get to see him. i told him about the issue and he gave me a prescription for my meds. i didnt look at the script before i took it to the pharmacy. they filled it, and it turned out to be 30 mg. im supposed to be on the highest mg of 70. so i tried to take it back but they wouldnt accept an exchange because i took it out of the store. so i was stuck with 30s. i called my doctor and he said to take 2 of them. but then that left me with only 60 and i needed 70. so i made another appointment and he said that he wouldnt charge me for this appointment. they sure as hell tried to charge me but i got him involved and he took the charge off. he gave me a prescription for 70s. i took that to walgreens and they filled it, and since i am on the patient assistance program, i didnt have to pay for anything. i got home and i noticed that my friend had taken my 30s because i told him in passing that i didnt need them and i was going to flush them. he ended up selling them to his friends for 20$ a pill. this was all last month.
this month came along and it was time for another refill and guess what happened. the doctor gave me 30s again. again, i forgot to look at the script. i walked out of his office and as i was getting in my car, i remembered that maybe i should look at it. GOD DAMMIT IT WAS 30s. i walked back to his office stunned and upset. i walked up to reception and told them what happened. they said that he was in with another patient and i was like “fine ill wait.” i waited for 30 minutes before the doctor came out. when the doctor came out, i interrupted him before he could get his next patient. he took me into his office and filled out a 70 mg script. he told me that he would try and remember next time. i told him that it was ok because i usually dont make it a priority to bash people for making mistakes. i took it to the pharmacy and this time they refilled it, and everything ended up ok. but damn this has been 2 times that my psychiatrist has made a mistake. i usually dont change doctors just because of small mistakes, but this time it is becoming a problem. i think i will stay with him and if it happens again then i will change. but this brings up a good question about doctors and adhd medication.
so my question is, why are some cats white with long fur and others black with short fur? 😛
and why doesnt the sony PSP have touch screen functionality?

i’m sorry yo u are having such an awful time with your meds. this sounds like your doctor has a large caseload.when this happens, he has trouble trying to properly treat the necessary patients.you need your mes daily. the person taking your meds is comitting a felony by taking meds intended for you. federal law prohibits unlawful transfer of meds from the person to whom it was prescribed to another to whom it wasn’t prescribed. if you continue to have these problems, not getting the proper doses, i suggest you see another dr. the question about cats,there are long haired cats and short haired cats.i dont know a lot about the sony psp.i hope that i have helped. god bless.
