When the Pharmacy doesn't have your meds.

My pharmacy didn't have 30 mgs of Daytrana patches, so I have to use 20 mgs until December.

These 2 and a half months are going to be Hell, I just know it.

Sorry to hear that, man. You can power through, though! I'll pray for you.

And hey, maybe by the end of this, you'll find that you only need the 20mgs, and that'll be a little relief from there on. Worst case scenario, you go back to 30 and things get better from there.

Try to think positive and you might be pleasantly surprised... BUT if things get very difficult, or you have any questions about your medications, make an appointment with your doctor IMMEDIATELY!!

Take care, VGA!! :D

My parents think that I've outgrown some of my meds, and need a lower dosage. Who knows.

Better than not having them at all.

(I once went four months without migraine meds. It was the pits. I am never doing that again so help me goddess)

Yeah, it's annoying when they're closed, too.

Going to my doctor won't do me any good, because there's a shortage of the dose I take nationwide.

I don't think it's fair that I have to suffer because some idiot couldn't meet the demand for the meds.

10 mg really shouldnt make a massive difference, your body will adapt to the lower dosages quickly

I tried a 20 mg, and it's working well so far.
