Sooo, looks like I'm not the only one suffering because of the V.A.'s lack of common sense! I too am a week late on getting my prescribed Xanax. And today is Saturday, so even if I do get the package on Monday, that will make it 9 days late. Freaking awesome. Now I know why the Vet up here where I live in Maine went psycho/crazy/ptsd/outrage at the Togus V.A. Facility in Augusta Maine. I mean, seriously, this is a medication that is not only addictive, but also can cause THE WORST form of detoxing! If you are on it, you know exactly what I mean, muscles lock up on you, cant sleep, feel just straight up abnormal. OH! Did I mention that if you abruptly stop which I obviously had to do, it can cause SEIZURES and POSSIBLY......... D E A T H. I am sick and tired of making myself look like a drug addict when I call my local V.A. and try to find out what the hell is up with my meds! grrrr....makes me want to sue them. This happens about 80% of the time (medications arriving late in mail) Now this one is just absurd. There is no excuse for being that late. Snowstorm or not. Thats the Government though, cant trust em even in the Medical Field. I know this is a long post, but I just found this page and signed up immediately. Good to unite people who all have the same problems, that's how things change for the better! I want to ask one thing to those who posted that they went to their local pharmacy (non-V/A) and got a partial fill, how do you go about doing that?!
