I tried looking at online pharmacies - cvs and drugstore.com but it wasn't listed in thier medication database. If I try and get it filled via a Canadian pharmacy - how amd I to know the good (legal) ones from the bad? OH - and even the hospital pharmacy (where I see my pdoc) didn't have it.

I'm afraid the Canadian option is out. I checked, and it's a controlled substance, and cannot be shipped to the US. It's available, though, so you could get it in person in Canada, but you can't just do the paper ordering.
If you're not too far from the border, the cost savings might cover much of the travel cost.
I'm sorry you're up against the wall, dude.
