Ed I had Greg call the pdoc's this morning and tell them how upset I was about the drug thing. The nurse called me back and said take the pain med if your arm is broken and he doesn't have a problem with that. But the valium is another issue. She also said that a therapist doen't have any right to discuss meds with a patient that that is between the doc and the patient. And she understands why my anxiety is so high. And that the LSW hit me out of the blue with that form. My understanding and wanting a therapist was to discuss what was bothering me. She also said to bring that form with me when I see the pdoc on Wednesday. I also told her that after 30 yrs and trying even in the hospital to find an AD to relieve my anxiety that 10 years ago I just accepted i would always need a benzo. But after I am in cast today I probably will not be able to type again. Love PJ O
