midwestmaI went for my monthly medidations, "Kadian 60 mg 3Xa day,, without even asking, I told my regular Dr. that the Kadian wasn't helping like is wa in the ;ast, so she upgraded the "Kadian" to the 60mg. I wa so elated. I continued to get my Valium 10mg twice daily, and my Percocet 7.5/325 four times a day for greak through pain, also my Zoloft 250mg three times a day.
My primary Dr. had a family emergency and was going to ge gone for at least two weeks or more. so I was given the "on call dr and he refused to write my script for the "Valium", and I sometimes get Xanax which he also refused to write a script for. He just cut me off cold turkery, and I'm suffering something terrible, I've called everyone and anyone who would listen! I have gotten nowhere, I am suffering something awful, where can I get some medicaion or from somewhere reputable? Please help, I don't know what to do, and I am suffering without this medication I am open to any any suggestions. Bless you all, and thanks for listening. midwstma
Please advice me, I need help, can a doctor do this?

My dear freind,
A similar situation happened to me where I reside and the on call Dr. would not give me my script for Klonopin, they can not do that as your primary Dr. has left him your chart where the records are kept and the medications you take plus your history. I believe this Dr. does not care about leaving you cold turkey and you must report him when you can to the Medical Association for mal practice. He can not refuse to give you what your primary Dr. has always given you.
Is there anyway you can contact your primary Dr. and explain, this , as you know, this is very serious, I can not believe this Dr. did not give you your medication , I am outraged.
When this happened to me I contacted my primary Dr. and explain the situation and in 1 hour I had my prescriptions.

Hi Midwestma, Unfortunately, it seems that a doctor can do pretty much what he/she feels like doing when your primary physician cannot be reached. I have even come across a situatuon where I could not get my scripts because my doctor had gone on vacation without notifying his patients. I think the most important thing right now is that you can not just stop taking your benzos just because your doctor is unavailable to you. I have always had good luck at the ER (especially the one my doctor works at ) they seem to be sympathetic to your problem enough so that they can give you a short supply until your doctor comes back. Best of luck, I hope you can find a doctor who can see his way clear to help you through this rough spot. Fall Queen

Hi midwestma,
As if you haven't been through enough lately, now this! I agree with FQ about going to ER, you can't just stop the benzos as maso said, dangerous indeed.
Saying a prayer for you lady.

Great advice Fall Queen. That's exactly what I would do. Go to the er where your own doc is affiliated. If my pain ever gets to the point where I need emergency intervention, I'll go to my surgeons hospital, not the nearest one! I miss you and hope you are ok??

Maso, you're always there when someone needs you, I have taken care of this hemmoroid of a Dr. I will not give up until someone listens to me, I am appalled at his attitude and indignet that he thinks he can change what my own PMD has prescribed due to his own arrogance. He needs to lose his license to practice in my opinion. How they can do this to patients is beyond me, however it happens all too frequent in our world of medicine. Rest assured I shall write, call, and do headstands to get attention, whatever it takes to get this matter noticed.
You have a great day/night wherever you reside. Chilean I thought I read somewhere, is that not the place I watched on the TV about the stranded miners, who were saved after almost two months. Amazing , God was watching over them all, and also the genius people who came up with the alternate route to safe them all. Bless You my friend.. midwestma
I agree with you 100%, this Dr. must lose his liscense.-
Take care my friend... and remember never to give up!!!
All the best from Chile,
