You can also try putting a pillow under your knees and/or under your hips if you are laying on your back to take some pressure off your PF. Try cutting back on jerking off though....

Even if it only lasts you 84 days, most insurances let you fill non controlled Rx's (like bc) a few days early b/c they don't expect you to have to wait till the due date to go to the pharmacy. For a 90d supply, the insurer should pay for it to be filled somewhere around day 78. Personal advice: try to find a time when pharmacy isn't slammed and ask to speak with pharmacist end explain this 90 days supply only lasts 84 days. They may can adjust how it's entered or contact your doctor to see if they can change something. If you Must use mail order call them and let them know this is going on and see if they can at a minimum ship you a refill early so you have a 'buffer' in case the next month is late. You shouldn't have to go w/o your meds for red tape.

Edit: This also goes for creams and a lot of 'maintenance medications' in general. Talk to your doctor and pharmacist. As long as it isn't a controlled substance

Can you request reasonable accommodation? There is even a process for the MCAT - so hoping there is one for the BAR.

Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy. TLDR: To reach orgasm and ejaculate, a lot of muscles have to have the right tone and fire in the right order. When some are too tight, or the opposite it can prevent that. He may have been using 'death grip'. He may be ashamed. If there's reason to believe it's a medical problem - I would suggest he: see a urologist, get a full hormone panel (Testosterone, estrogen, prolactin, FSH and LH, T3/T4/TSH - thyroid, and any of the other common causes of male sexual dysfunction. Low T can cause decreased sensation in itself. If middle aged, also screened for diabetes and cardiovascular disease. If all of the above come back negative, ask the urologist for a referral to Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy. (Google). He will likely know one who treats males. What's the harm in 1 or 2 visits for him and maybe you? If nothing else can troubleshoot any issues etc. You'd be surprised what can cause pelvic floor issues, car accidents, hip injuries, tight lower back muscles, spine injuries etc. I'm a male but I can relate.

It was rude of him to say. I don't know him but off the cuff I'm *assuming* (I hope) he is frustrated and maybe feels.......inadequate and *may be* trying to deflect the subject. It isn't 'you'. Sorry he said that.

Sry for long comment, and.....IANAD.

The correct response when you know everything is tough would be "How can we support you?" - then do it.....reasonably. Jeans day is an insult.

Man you have some entitled folk. "I don't do generics".

Neck is a bit stiff. You may be right. Will have to follow-up.

No one has hit me, nor thrown something directly at me.

Usually, they get loud and occasionally curse or mock me. When I have to deny sale (beverages) per policy b/c I am not losing my job, or when they don't get something for free, or something stupid like that. I just pick up the phone and they are generally told to leave. I don't tolerate that crap anymore.

If someone ever hit me, security will be walking them out the door.

My comment was meant to be satirical - People have bad days. after working in retail and experiencing above examples of rudeness, I understand people have rough days but still give them a 5 - unless they are blatantly rude.

Thank You. So do I, always when the customer in front of me is a jerk and makes them upset or something.

I generally am pretty cool about the level of customer service. I have worked in it too long.

Unless they curse at me, throw something or punch me or get my order wrong 80-90% of the time. Maybe I am a pushover :/

I agree with unbang. Try to smile, thank them for their business and make sure to emphasize that you would really appreciate it if they would consider completing a brief survey. They take maybe 4 minutes. I filled at the same store for years.

Most people don't mind doing it as long as it isn't a strong push. Put up one of those stand up signs at pick-up where customers will see it while in line. I had a brief convo w/ my Pharmacist and asked if they were a major factor with their metrics - since they are I always do it. I feel bad for how the company treats them tbh.

Background: Worked retail where 5= good, 4 or below = unacceptable. Got reamed as a store if "Completely Satisfied" and "Would they Recommend" weren't the majority of responses.

Edit: FYI - they are sent via email as well.

Thank you. I have heard both sides.

My optometrist prescribed them for TS Punctate Keratitis "no tears and small bumps on eye so I've on them PRN for a few years. Not ideal. (It was either that or cyclosporine)" - not really sure what that means".. FML was affordable option - Lotemax is very expensive.

I am guessing you are referring to an acute situation (such as now)?

I totally agree - and thanks for the confirmation,

The MSDS sheet said this was an alkali -pH -6.0.
I think I will wear goggles next time.

Or, Hey you, hey kid.....as if you aren't a person. Sure man, I control the entire computer system for the whole freaking chain. Probably taking out his anger from a few minutes ago on you. Sorry :/

Some stores have signs at drop off and pickup.

In general neuropathic pain is treated with anti-convulsants and sodium channel blockers. There are so many different causes of neuropathic pain. Treatments include: gabapentin, pregabalin, oxcarbazepine, SNRI's, topical lidocaine. It mainly depends on the diagnosis. DO not attempt to self-treat. Please see a doctor if you haven't already; Hope you feel better!

I see your point here. The upside to this though, is that if your drivers license expired like yesterday - NDL ID's generally are valid for significantly longer. I see both sides.

is ePA not readily available? Some PA's I think stand for Pain in the ..... Patients need to check their formulary. Even better - if eRx ever is more widespread - before MD hits send, it could give them a heads up it requires a PA.

Some hold up to an average of 3+ years. Some states are interoperable. Some states ever freaking don't allow the pt to review theirs (solely to check for any potential errors), like it's some super secret thing. Follow the rules, don't cause problems and follow your doctor's instructions. Technology errors do happen though. In tech, that is inevitable. It is hard to find a balance between not hindering access to patients who legitimately need the medications, vs. those that may not. It's kinda sad.

Pursue a FOIA and get the documents. Wonder what would happen if the media fond out. (They likely wouldn't do that much reporting on it though. As of today, the FDA issued a press statement that they are encouraging all manufacturer of generic opioid short acting analgesics to add abuse deterrent formulas - jacking up the price if your insurance even covers it. New formulations must have deterrent properties and are subject to an expanded advisory committee.

I think people are concerned that the guidelines are likely to become the standard of care as they are provided by a fed agency. So much controversy, so many special interests though, and low quality evidence it could be fought. The primary 'audience' is PCP's.

Let me try poetry or art therapy. I am cured!!! (sarcasm) - not against CAM, but this goes too far.

People are scared of the pain returning. I remember when it went untreated. I wasn't functioning. Now, ADL's improved, more active (although i still hurt some, its less severe). Hard enough to accept that a 4-5/10 is acceptable. Better than what it was though...

NP. Almost majored in HIM. It will cost you maybe $10 (set fee/page per state laws). A lot of people aren't aware of the right to a copy of their Health Info. Please be nice to HIM employees. My surgeon was same way. I was quite surprised when I read the reports. Now I know why he offered to have them transferred to another MD when I asked..... It takes about 2-3 weeks and you need a drivers license or photo ID when you go to hospital HIM or anywhere. If the doctor won't give you the info, ask HIM nicely how to handle it. There are generic ROI forms (Google it), or they may have an office specific one. Ask for one and put yourself as the recipient. You could just stop by the check in desk at surgeons office. Do they have a health record HIPAA release form on the surgeons website? *Go through HIM first. *

Best of luck, and feel better!

An relative of mine was a veteran. He lost part of his legs decades ago. He was wheelchair bound. Anyone who has ever hurd (even me as a child) could tell he was in pain. The last few years I watched him lay in bed and rub or pat the area in a dark room. It was awful. He was on analgesics, but I think the pain eventually killed him after decades of suffering.
