Absolutely, hang on to the appointment until you hear from the other Dr. and then if they require it also see if that Dr. is acceptable to him/her and if so YOU already have an appt. For once you will be ahead of the game. YAY, Jamie!!! Things might ACTUALLY work to your benefit this time!!!! Who'd have thunk????
Stay strong your Friend needs you!!...Sherry
lol thanks Sherry.
My family doctor has already faxed everything to the new pain dr and I am just waiting to hear from them. I called my family dr again and asked if this one is the same as the last one if I had to go to a shrink first and how long the wait is to get in and I haven't heard back yet. I already have a appointment with a shrink and I don't know if I should cancel it or not since it was for the other pain dr.. I guess i just sit and wait now til I hear something from one of them.
Thank you guys so much,
Jamie
Jamie, You certainly have NOTHING to apologize for. I would have "freaked out" much more than you did!! I'm so glad that you are going to be with your friend. You're the rock that she needs right now.
Absolutely, you should DEFINITELY be looking ASAP for another PM Dr. Don't hesitate!!! You don't have to worry about anything because you haven't been prescribed anything at all from him. Get started girl!!!!
Take care of yourself....Sherry
I would think you could change PMP if you cannot see your new one for 10 weeks and he has prescribed nothing for you. So start searching.
And no need to apologize for "freaking out." We all do it from time to time and as everyone has said, that's one of the reasons we are here.
Being supportive to your friend at this very difficult time is extremely important. I was so glad to have other's around when my father recently passed. Just knowing that others care about you or carried about your love one helps ease the pain of a loss. So do what you need to do for your friend.
Take Care,

Jamie: You have nothing to apologize for. Your reaction was completely normal. I'm just sorry you're in that position.
Jaybay is right, that's what were her for :)
Jamie my dear, you have nothing for which to apologize. Dealing with freakouts and vents is what we're all here for! :-)
