i currently unable to get topicals for my skin condition because i have a hard time scheduling appoints since i had to use new insurance around my work schedule, which one of “problem solvers” have denied me of changing it. oh yea certain drugs like controlled substances, your insurance people adds extra step to even get it.

I’m currently stuck in prior authorization hell and used the last dose of my med yesterday. Ugh. I hate this fucking country.

Might be a long shot, but depending on the med, might want to ask your doctor’s office if they have sample supplies of the med to hold you over until they get the prior auth approved.

Generally a good suggestion but having your mental health depend on a controlled substance is a fresh kind of hell. Anyone know how Spain’s health care system is for trans folks on testosterone? I can get citizenship in an EU country and a couple of people I know moved to Madrid last year and I think this situation has convinced me to move even if I’ve forgotten most of the Spanish I once knew.
I did pitch a fit and managed to get it filled today but I never want to deal with this shit again, it’s been life-alteringly awful previous times.

medications for mental illnesses are controlled so the insurance/hmo adds extra laborious steps to get it. pre-authorization or must have in-person doctors appts,etc. its not as fast i need this cream for skin/fungal asap.
