Well, Manic, "they" do indeed tell us what sort of meds they will allow. That's mostly to keep expenses down. I only saw the Pdoc one time, and he was rather short with me. A lot of the medical professionals become jaded in prison work I guess. All that I could get was Remeron, which caused me to gain 40 pounds. Right now, I am still w/o insurance, and I am in the process of getting "public" health here in Virginia. It is going to take at least a month before I actually get to see a Pdoc it seems. I had to go to one of those 24- hour emergency care places just to get enough Remeron to hold me over. The doc there would not RX me any psych meds except for what I could prove I already was receiving. The whole thing is a big mess! I'm used to having excellent medical coverage as I held a Federal government job for 25 years. My, how things have changed for me! It's depressing.
