I hope you get all your scripts Dennis and the morphine you need.

Keep us posted...that's horrible.

a

The Rheumy didn't know of my changing insurance, and wrote (called in)

scripts for a year's supply of all except for the Morphine. As I was picking

up the script for MS Contin, I told the receptionist of my not being on

Medicare any more and was dropped at that instant! No warning or anything.

Since I have no paperwork showing the ordered meds, I'm hoping they had been

as I said, with refills for a year.

a, I'm concerned about the PCP writing scripts that were handled by my

Rheumy, especially the Morphine. He did write my script for a 3 month supply

but with no refills and the other meds were set up for a year's worth. I'm

going to cross my fingers and hope my PCP will cooperate. Time will tell.
