was it the nurse denying the medication or the doctor? call and ask to speak to the doctor directly. the same thing happened to me this week and it turns out the doctor had no idea that it was happening. i also have been seeing the same doctor for years and years. the nurse is not the one who should be making that decision the doctor is. nurses cannot write scripts for prescriptions anyway.
should a physician refuse to renew a prescription unless you are seen for a doctors appointment? . i have cardiomyopathy and have been treated by the same doctor since 2003. recently i tried to renew one of my prescriptions and the pharmacy said they could not fill it. when i spoke to his nurse she said he would not renew my prescriptions until i go in and see him in the office. i told her i could not afford any more medical bills and could he please renew my prescriptions he refused and within a week i was admitted into the hospital for congestive heart failure.
