Scared about a forged rx

So my friend works for a dr and she wrote an rx and signed it for oxycodone. When she went to pick it up she could tell the pharm was suspicious but the still gave her the meds...she then got up and went into work before anyone else and there was a fax from the pharm asking that the dr verify that this was his pt and he wrote the script. She then wrote on that the info was correct and faxed it back to the pharmacy .....then destroyed everything....so question is....do you think it's taken care of?? Since she told the pharmacy on their fax that it was correct and faxed it back from the docs office that will be enough for them????

Thank you. I keep praying that I managed to avoid getting I trouble for this but trust that I am NEVER doing that again. I'm sure I am red flagged anyway now...I am getting clean and need to focus on my babies. I remember how much better I felt to not be a slave anymore to the pills last time and want that again..I just keep looking at my driveway waiting for the police to pull in any moment. I have actually been texting with the dr I work for and his PA today as a "feeler" and they don't "act" as if they have been contacted. I really want to talk to my pastor tomorrow ...I got baptized this last year and feel like I need Him more now than ever.  I just wish I knew if this was going to come back and bite me so I can just move on with out watching over my shoulder. I can't even imagine what my husband would do.

Yes we probably all were thinking that your friend was you but it's really good that you told us.  I can only imagine the fear that you have right now.
I would suggest that you stop using right away.  Go to NA or AA and in case anything happens it will show that you are serious about getting clean.
Are you ready to quit now?  If you are we can help you through it.

Well the first step is acceptance but I'm sure you already a suspect ere's no "friend" wasn't sure of the level of anonymity .,I,do need help. I had a pretty major sx in 2011 and that's when it started. I was given liquid oxy due to the type which hits you even more than tabs. This was for tabs though. Sine my 1st sx I have had some pain issues and 3 more surgeries in the last year. I had stopped taking anything last June after being on oxy for a year and amazingly didn't even have withdrawals! I was clean until my last surgery in November. My spouse also had sx so there was plenty of oxy in the house. I was on liquid oxy AND liquid dilauded. But when mine ran out I used up his. Then realized i needed to replace his in case he needed it...he didn't even use 60 tabs for his ankle sx. This is the first time I went as far as writing an rx. I mean the first surgery. I have written a few now and oh my god do I regret it!! I am so scared. I have a 4 and 8 year old...I am just hoping I caught the only fax that will come through....now time to get clean again...crying.

I don't think if she talks to her Pastor they will report her! I think there are laws about confidentiality. I can't say for sure. Perhaps the Pharmacy is suspicious because they have the same last name, and address info? I really hope she quits this and gets the help she really does need! This is very serious and it could take some time before it comes back to bite her! The Pharmacy could continue to investigate. I'm not trying to scare you, but this is really serious! There are other members here who have found themselves in a similar situation, and it isnt pretty! Good luck, I wish her all the best! Hopefully, others with some experience in this will weigh in!
