| Re: Need Help NOW, in a mess with 2 Doctors Oh man
I was afraid when I saw your title....Thought it was a bad situation....This is an easy one actually.....
You are under no obligation to fill any script. And one can't get in trouble until it's filled anyway. I get all sorts of scripts from Docs that I'm not comfortable taking the med (for whatever reason), and I simply throw them away. If it's a controlled script, I give it to my PM Doc. Being that you gave it to your doc to have him destroy it, was a very good move....Probably earned you good brownie pts with your Doc.
All you have to do is cancel the appt with the receptionist and that's it. Don't give any reason. Or if they ask, just tell them your regular Doc is going to treat you. If they try to say anything, just tell them your turned the script over to your Doc who destroyed it and you feel more comfortable seeing your new Doc. You under no obligation to go back to see him, or any Doc. I'd be very surprised if anything comes of it. Chances are the clinic is so busy, the Doc will never know you canceled and didn't come back. Worst case scenario, if they try to start something, tell your regular Doc and let him handle it, but I'd incredibly surprised if it arrises to that.
The only way the canceled appt would be an issue is if you canceled the xray and then went back for meds....But since you're not going back, it's a non issue.
Best of luck to you, and hope your back feels better.

Ex
