> I've been where you are and I feel you pain-really. I had to eventually go to the ER when I moved to MN because I couldn't get in to see a pdoc. So I wnet to the ER and said - "I need refills and I can't get in to see a doc." Luckily there was a pdoc on the floor and overheard about my difficulties and offered to take me in as a patient. I wish I had better advice...

I don't think I'll have to resort to the ER, but thanks for the sugestion. BTW, ERs in my area typically get a lot non-emergency patients who simply don't have MDs.
