Great attitude.  Hopefully you are doing a nice slow taper so you won't feel too much at all.
Best of luck.

You know, it may not be that hard...it all depends where your head is and how much you want this. You really want this for your baby and yourself so you'll get this going!

Keep in touch!

I would go to the doctor's office in person if that's what it takes.  You need to get their attention right away!  Honestly, the pharmacist is right.  They can't give you early refills.  They are really being strict about that right now.  The doctor can fix the entire thing with one phone call.  Keep on at them until they do it, PLEASE!  I don't want you to miscarry.......

The other thing is that they must change the strength or instructions in order for it to work. But this can be fixed.  Don't stop until it IS fixed!

I'm sorry to hear you are going through this.  You definitely need to keep calling the doctor's office and explain what's going on.  The doctor can call and give different instructions to approve the script.  

Hang in there and keep calling!  In the meantime, just try to rest as much as you can (I know it's hard).

Phone your doctor and get him to authorize an early release on your meds with the pharmacy.  Tell him you are in withdrawal and there is a risk to your baby.  Phone right away.

She changed to a taper down and when I talked to the pharmacy they told me since it was early I had to start the taper with what I was suppose to have left its about 6 days early and I'm about 2 days into w/d's now and I think I'm going to die I didn't fight with them cause I'm sick of dealing with this I'm going to try my dr in the am and see where that goes my dr was real understanding so I hope this goes ok tomorrow I'm so scared cause my daughters Christmas program is tomorrow and I don't want to be the wigged out junky mom that looks sicker than a dog this freaking ***** part me just wants to give up! Oh and yes I was taking 2 or three more a day than I was suppose to function better i did this to myself now I have to deal with the consequences I just pray I don't harm the baby I don't know if I could handle that on top of everything!

Well, the pharmacist can do that unless the doctor changes the rx a little bit. When is your fill date? I'd call the pharmacist and explain what's happening here and that you're starting a prescribed taper. Maybe go in with your husband in person...if that still doesn't work, just call the doctor back and explain what's happening and that the rx needs to be changed up so they'll fill it as a new rx.   Tell the pharmacist you're pregnant if you haven't already.

I wish you well...

Oh geez!   Is it written by the same doc?   Perhaps they can call him and get an approval to fill early since they are aware of circumstances?

This is great news!!! Im so glad that you persisted and made your Dr's listen to you and help you with a plan! Your Dr was probably just thinking you were using her for more meds so I can understand her initial reaction. This is going to a good thing for you and just keep staying honest with both of your Dr's! Honesty is the best policy!

Glad to hear it.   Now make sure your husband sticks to your taper schedule and you don't know where the pills are.   You will be ok as long as you stick to your taper.
