No literally. I get botox for migraines every 10 weeks and it gives me such bad muscle spasms for 3-4 days after which I get a muscle relaxer for. My last appointment I called so many times because it wasn’t at the pharmacy and it came in like a week later when I didn’t need it anymore

psychiatrist, rheumatologist, gastroenterologist, primary care, gender-affirming care—literally every type of doctor I deal with. beyond frustrating, lowkey insulting

that’s egregious as hell… like if it’s a med you were prescribed in relation to an in-office procedure, of course it’s gonna be extremely time-sensitive?? wtf, I’m sorry. pissed off on your behalf
