I found out about 2 weeks ago. I've called another doctor but there was something else with the insurance. I asked the first doctor if he could give me another prescription but I didn't get a direct answer so I'm going to call again. cuz I really dont wanna setback when I've been feeling so much better since I've started the zoloft. if nothing else, I'll try what you suggested. thanks as always c:
I would doubt it's a reemergence of side effects. From what you describe, it sounds more like the symptoms of your anxiety/depression, exacerbated by both your menstrual cycle and coming off the Melatonin. If you had been taking the melatonin every day for a while, you can notice some side effects when stopping, mainly some rebound insomnia.
I agree that you need to consider a dosage increase with your doctor. PLEASE don't let the Zoloft run out. You don't want that to happen and have to abruptly stop taking it. That will put you in a bad position and set you back.
Find a new doc ASAP. Can you at least ask the original doc if he would give you a month's refill or something, to give you time to find a new doctor? When did he notify you that he was no longer accepting your insurance? It's not unreasonable to ask that you be given a refill to buy you some time transitioning to a new doc...unless you've known about it for a couple months or something, then he may not be willing. Give it a try.
When you call new docs, explain that your Rx will run out in 2 weeks. Worst case scenario, if you're cutting it close and cannot get into see a new doc before it runs out, you could try an urgent care facility. I wouldn't do that until you've already made an appt with the new doc though. That way you can go in and explain that you have an appt on "x" date and want to be sure you don't run out of the Zoloft before your appt. Hopefully they will give you a script for enough to cover you til the appt. Get on it asap!
Good luck...keep us updated!
yup. did all that. he doesn't do that. and it would cost almost 300 dollars per visit. that's money that I just dont have. 300 dollar visit to get 10 dollar zoloft... I just cant.
You can still see the same Dr of course. You would have to pay out of pocket though. Some Drs will give uninsured patients a discount. You can always call the office to see if your Dr does this.
see the thing is, the original doctor I was seeing who prescribed me the Zoloft in the first place doesn't take my insurance so I have to find another doctor. I have about 2 weeks left of the Zoloft before I run out which is pretty scary to think about but yea, I need to see a new doctor to see what's going on -_-
It could very be a sign that you need to increase again. Can you get in to see your Dr soon to let him/her know what's going on and talk about a possible increase if it's needed?
