How did the dr visit go? Do you like him?
See my post #172. I have been going to him since early 2012 after Dr. Wilkerson gave me his name. He doesn’t rush you out. I go with a printed list of my medicines and a list of printed reasons why I am there. I give the medicine list to the nurse and she deals with getting it on their records if anything has changed since the last time.
I hand the doctor the list of why I am there and we deal with the list. That way I don’t forget something I was going to discuss and the list keeps him on point to write new prescriptions if required.
On your medicine list at the top, list your pharmacy and their phone number. He sends the pharmacy prescriptions right then from his computer as he is recording them.
I had a separate printed list of which prescriptions I had no refills for and those with only one refill left. That way, he knew which ones to send right then.
If you go with those lists, you get to talk longer about what’s wrong rather than spend time “telling” about your medicines - it’s all on those sheets.
