I finally managed to pull it off too—getting those pills on credit with just that little slip of paper. It’s clearly super important whether you've shopped there before. She asked if I had picked up my birth control from their pharmacy specifically, and since she saw I'd been in a few times already, she handed them over without any issues at all.
Lonegull81, it’s awesome they were willing to give it to you without a prescription. I just hit up a few pharmacies and they wouldn't budge. Looks like I’ll have to take a break...
I’m stuck without a gynecologist because my doctor’s contract with Blue Cross just ended. I'm currently on Yaz. They promised a new provider would be stepping in to take her place, but nothing has happened yet and I haven't found anyone else.
I thought I could just walk in and get a private prescription, but when I stopped by an office yesterday, they looked at me like I had landed from Mars. Am I dealing with a bunch of jerks, or is it actually impossible to get a private prescription like that?
So, I’ve run into a bit of a stupid problem. I’m currently on Yaz, and I was planning to call my gynecologist this Thursday to have them send over a prescription since I need to start my new pack this Saturday. But, clearly, the nurse didn't send it because when I stopped by the pharmacy yesterday afternoon, they had nothing on file. To make matters worse, my doctor worked yesterday morning but isn't in today, so I can't get a hold of her... Is there any way I can get a prescription, maybe from a private doctor? Or am I just out of luck? From what I understand, pharmacies won't give you anything without a script, no matter what...
