Re: Isocort and the police visit..........

[Guest guest]

The US is the same way. I confirmed this with my state Attorney General

before I started ordering years ago. You can ship from other countries into

the US on a lot of meds without a prescription up to a 3 month supply. My

last order I had to sign something when I picked up the package after they

questioned me on what it was (Cytomel) and they had a special thing they did

for meds.

I was worried for a bit but had my speech all prepared about how legally I

can get a 3 month's supply, but then they just had me sign and turn it over.

Now, as far as what constitutes a " three month supply " , I imagine that

depends on the individual and how much they need in their dosage.

Is it? I really did not know that and have had this worry at the back of

my mind that I could get into trouble if Customs opened my meds en route.

Phew!

Why did I not ask before, I have been doing my adrenals no favours by

keeping this concern to myself!

BUT, I have to tick a box, on the supplier's website, stating I am under

the supervision of a loca doctor with the use of these meds. Is that not

something to be concerned about either?

t is LEGAL for us to import a 3 month supply providing it is for

personal use

I gave him My bracelet a couple of days ago and just wrote on a

piece of card - adrenal insufficiency, 20 mgs Isocort.

I told him to get the piece of card typed up and laminated when he

got back to college.

And I have just shown him your post. It did not occur to him for a

second to show the officer his bracelet, I suppose because he he so

unused to wearing it, he just forgot in the shock of the arrest.

I don't think either of us can afford to pay to join this

organisation but certainly there are plenty of benefits to having

this kind of I.D.

So not ACTUALLY having a local doctor supervising the use of the

meds, this is not a problem Lynda?

I DID stress-dose immediately they left though nonetheless and gave

Danny 5 mg h/c and I am sure that helped a lot.

Did you see my other post to you Val. Sorry to pester but I really

need to lay things out for my son about the need for him to take his

Isocort in the morning (when his cortisol is below range) rather than

midday when he usually gets up.

Did you see the post, if not, let me know and I will explain it again.

Still struggling with new ISP here and some stuff is gettingh through

anand some posts are going through several times.

Sorry folks, pse bear with me.

O Mo, Medic Alert will *give* you and him the basic bracelet. They even gave me

a scholorship one year when I didn't have money for the membership. It's worth a

try, for you and your dear son's life.

Maybe it is an age thing Val, they just lookied like ignorant rookie

police to me.

When I was 21 I would have been less confident as a person and more

frightened of them I suppose. They were just KIDS! LOL

It might help to keep things in their original containers. I save old bottles to

use since I obviously don't want to take my entire drug dose along with me in

our Florida heat. Pills in a plastic bag could be anything while pills in a

container with a brand name on it look a whole lot less suspicious.

[Guest guest]

It is true and something that has to be borne in mind.

Certainly if you are 21!

I use a container with a buzzer that i set for different times or soemtimes just

stick a few pills in my pocket.

But then I am 59 and not likely to be pulled up by the police.

As I am such a sweet little old lasy you understand
