Me vs the Health Centre

I'm about to tackle the health centre today to get them to set an appt for me to get my meds this week. They are annoyingly inefficient. I was told week before last that my appt was postponed and that they'd call me the day after to reschedule. I have yet to receive that call and I have tried reaching them myself- no luck. Well I'm going in today to see what can be done because I have to get my meds before my next appt which is next Wednesday. Hope I won't let my frustration with them get the best of me. Wish me luck!

Ah yes, the phone, don't fuck with my meds, why am I fighting the system - I don't want to be in, begging for meds I don't want to take????

Been there many times!!! LMAO - we are responsible, because not one pdoc, pharmacy, tdoc, etc - is taking care of us!!! We need to make the 54 phone calls, when we don't feel like it! oy veh : /

I know your pain, and I hope you don't lose the plot - never helps, but if you do - I totally understand!!!! LOL

good luck! i hope you get your meds without problems and your next appointment goes well. check to see if your health system uses myChart or a similar program - that way you can send electronic requests for meds. depending on your pharmacy you can also enlist your pharmacist to call in and get your refills for you - that usually takes a couple of days and sometimes you have to call your doctor's office to follow up, but it's one more way to keep them on the ball.

    Ever since I stopped doing therapy because of insurance, I've been feeling that old tense and irritable sense of anxiety and stress. I hate that. I was making so many strides and changes during therapy, my therapist would acknowledge all of my progress and accomplishments, and I miss that reassurance. Today I thought about it, and I made those changes! She would always tell me that I chose to...
