Lilly, you do not have to stop, I am confused. they said your Dr. no longer has a DEA number? I would demand an answer as to what happened and if nothing else a letter explaining that I was a patient and that I was abruptly cut off do to this and go to the ER, I know you are not supposed to lie but sometimes you are put in a position where you may have to. If the Dr. does not state your dose on this letter I would tell the ER I was on 8 or even 16mg a day. I would think with proof you should have no problem getting them to prescribe you the 3 days they are aloud since your health is at risk by no fault of your own. That could give you time to find a new Sub Doc. This is absolute bullshit and do not accept it.
Yes, you can do it if you have to but you should not be forced into this. It will be hard and I hate to see you suffer unecesarily because of some quack Dr. I do not think they are aloud to just cut you off like this without a referal to another Dr. or something. I am sure someone with a better understanding of the law will post. I am so sorry you are going thru this, my heart goes out to you!
