Guest guest Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 I`ve had to go to emerg twice this weekend. So this morning was very anxious that afib was going to start again, so I went to the 'Walk-in- Clinic' explained how I was feeling and asked for something to relieve my anxiety. He said tranquilizers will not prevent afib and so it wasn`t necessary!! I commented that I just needed something to relax me. But I still didn`t get anywhere....so after I pinned him to the wall I left!!!!!! Sheesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope your next one is better. petlover60 stanmar@...> wrote: I`ve had to go to emerg twice this weekend.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 You might want to get a perscription from your primary care doctor instead of a walk in clinic... I think the walk in clinics probably see the addicts and junkies looking for a quick fix, so are probably much more likely to refuse a request for something such as this. petlover60 stanmar@...> wrote: I`ve had to go to emerg twice this weekend.

I can see you pinning him to the wall --- and perhaps he deserved it. Just wanted to add: there is one major managed health care group in my state which absolutely refuses to prescribe tranquilizers. I had a friend who salivated when I was complaining that a doctor in my group prescribed Xanax and I thought it was a useless prescription for me. (I never felt any difference from this " tranquilizer. " ) Thanks for the image -- a Fibber seeking help and yet still having the moxie to speak up for themselves. You go, Petlover.
