OMG I was bouncing off the walls .....I called her back 2 days later after I looked up what she gave me and asked her WHY would she prescribe something that wired me - I was sooooo exhausted from all the crying and sadness & that stuff made it so much worse - she told me to get unisom over the counter.

Can we say 'beoytch"?????

I ended up spending MORE money I didn't have to see a DIFFERENT doctor I used to go to when I worked and had insurance. she was great...she GAVE me a whole free months supply of Lunesta and a prescription to get me thru the nights plus did a sliding scale fee ....

so sorry this is so long - but it shows me it really depends on the DOCTOR - I can't say women Dr.'s are more compassionate than men though you'd think they would be wouldn't you ?
Yes, I do remember all that, Vee. It was a terrible time for you and a most terrible doctor. Seems she had zero compassion. I know everything is still difficult for you but I am very glad you got beyond that particular place and that partucular time.

Love and Hugs to you!
