I wasn't sure which center he was going to. Some of the ones out in the sticks are less than stellar. That's why I asked. :)

But, Memphis is probably pretty good, except that I imagine they see quite a few veterans.


@zippy: If he wants to feel REAL good he could go to the Pink Pony. ;)

is there a way you can see a non-va doc, if they can show it is service-related it will be responsibility of the gov to pay? Even if you have to pay initial costs and get reimbursement, it would be worth it for quality of care?

Unfortunately no. They have a system and force you to use it.

This is going to be fun!! I took my last dose of Celexa (primary PTSD med) yesterday. My refills weren't in the mail today. So I'm going from 60mgm a day to nothing. Ya'll better pray for the folks who piss me off today. LOL

Bad news indeed.

When I moved to Aylesbury I couldn't get registered with a Doctor without photo ID. I has to wait until my driving licence came back with my Aylesbury address.

Hello!
I'm on anti-depressants?!
They've run out....

Although it worked out well in the end.
My new practice switched me to Citalopram and I'm a shiny new version of myself because of it.

I'll keep everything crossed that you get them on Monday.
I'm sure they'll stay in your system that long.
I hope.

Big Sarge 04-02-2011 02:01 PM

Celexa & Citalopram are the same drug. I'll hop in the car & drive over to bum a few from you. LOL

Sundae 04-02-2011 02:36 PM

Give it time.
It's really helped me.

And yes, when it happens it's mind-blowing :)
or shall I come over and blow it for yo9u?

Big Sarge 04-03-2011 02:52 AM

omg, see now you've started the wild fantasies racing through my head. sg you can be so naughty

plthijinx 04-03-2011 04:22 AM

SG has "healing hands" and Big Sarge is "nude". y'all? get a room! and don't come out for a month. :D

skysidhe 04-04-2011 12:29 AM

I want to be a sex pot like SG.

I've gotten to the point that I can't handle things. I'm about to call the Military One Source hotline. Today's doctor was Chinese & spoke poor English. In fact, she had to use a translation phrase book & pointed out things for me to read. Now they're thinking my levels were skewed because of the prednisone, 3 shots of decadron, and a shot of Celestrone (however you spell it) in a 2 week period. Now she thinks I have Addison's. Isn't that the exact opposite? Why can't sher get me in to see Endo???

Still no PTSD meds & now I'm out of HCTZ & my Beta blocker. Doctor says they are sorry. They called the pharmacy (express scripts) & I should have received it on 31MAR11. If it isn't here in 2 weeks, they'll try to re-issue. WTF!!!

Yes, I'm raging. I know there is nothing that can be done, but I can't keep going like this
