But on the other hand my DR is not very compassionate to his patients needs. I am a full time college student again after working a dead end job for years. I also take care of my mother who has health issues, so I'm not employed at the moment until I graduate in December. I have to go to a state run clinic, so I can afford the visit and my medication. My DR has always been very short and cold. The last visit he even answered a personal call as I was speaking. No excuse me or sorry I had to take a call, nothing. He is the only DR to see at this clinic, so I'm at his mercy to get the meds I need. Sorry to rant again, I just wish there was more compassion towards this issue. Thanks again to everyone who responded. I appreciate it very much!
I understand Freedom. My Dr. during my last visit wrote me my normal minuscule script and then said that I need to stop taking benzo's. He added, sarcastically, that some of his patients just go to Cabo (San Lucas Mexico) for their meds. I'm sure he noticed the look of astonishment on my face. He really thinks I'm that stupid to risk jail time in Mexico or maybe I'm faking my anxiety and am abusing them! Maybe I look too calm in his office, due to the fact I needed a football before entering his zoo....waiting room. I have an appt. next week and I'll see what happens. He really doesn't understand what I've gone through my entire life.
