One of the prescriptions I needed had to be ordered. My doctor said to take it in the mornings because it would give me some energy to get through the day. I have been anxiously waitingfor it because I would LOVE to have some energy again.
Well, the pharmacist called me yesterday afternoon and said to come get the prescription, they couldn't fill it. I asked him why in the world could they not fill a prescription. He aid he called my doctor and asker her why she prescribed it. She told him it was for fibromyalgia/CFS.
He said that, by law, that particular drug is only approved for people with ADD so I can't have it! Wow! Can they do that?
It seems to me that doctors give meds for unapproved uses all the time. So what is the deal? I have a friend who gets a men's prostate med for her bladder problems. It isn't for women but her doctor gives it to her because it works.
I am a little mad right now but I guess it is their job. Guess I'll have to call the doctor and see if there is something else she wants to give me.



Keep me posted!
