The Found Cats have pooled thier allowances and have authorized me to send Kelly a small parcel with a Few Cat Toys,and a note for Kelly.
I know that its not much,and wont get there before PetMas,but I hope that it makes her feel better.
I hope that Kelly can get this Oaf straightened out,and have no problem getting the medicine that she needs.

Kelly, I pray that you will find a healthcare provider that will better manage and provide for your pain and suffering.

There have to be some offices out there with nice staff. The staff is important too.

I suspect the office manager is oh too familiar with folks who take too many medications (pain killers) and has put Kelly in that category, thus the attitude.

Not knowing all the details.....as far as Kelly's relationship with her doctor, I would think Kelly would talk to the doctor, avoiding the staff altogether. I didn't know staff could order medications without having a doctor sign off on them.........maybe I am living under a rock.

Medications are regulated to a huge degree (and yet people get around it all the time) and the pharmacy can get their license revoked for giving out meds that are not properly ordered.

Kelly should go back to her Doctor for advice. I don't think we can help her here.

I discovered some time back that the medical field can't see pain, it don't show up in your blood on on a X-ray, it don't discolor like a bruise so since it can't be seen, some doctors act like it isn't there. I also learned that it does take more pain killers for some than it does for others to get the same results.

Unfortuanlly, those who use it for fun only make the ones who need it pay the price and when you ask a doctor for it, they think you just want a "high".
Right after my ordeal, they had it on TV that people who are really in pain, do NOT get addicted to pain medication. How come they have stuff like this on TV and not inform the doctors?

I hate that she has to be going through this. In todays world, a person should not have to suffer like that or have to go through all that mess to get something to make her life bearable and pain free. That really stinks!

I would be back at that doctors having a talk with him and getting some things streight and seeing if he is doing that or that girl at the desk is. If she is doing that, he needs to know and if he does not believe she is in that pain, she needs another doctor!

Kelly this all sounds very much like an incident I had with my new shrink's staff. They failed 3 different times to properly get my brand new medications for Bi-Polar II called in (refilled) , so I finally got angry and treated her like a child as well. Instead of my doctor being professional and attempting to hear MY side of the story, he dumped me. My husband had to call his office back to get them to SAFELY wean me off of these new "mind" drugs that they started me on! If a psychiatrist's office that deals with people with mood disorders and such EVERYDAY, can't understand why a patient might get irritated after having their refill postponed and screwed up for 3 days in a row, can't handle the patient, then what good are they? Again, I think this whole situation was unethical, and down right dangerous, just as yours sounds!
