Medicine while traveling.
Hi All, I have been wondering how I will get my medicine while traveling. I can only get one month at a time and I am planning a trip that will be two or more months long. Any ideas? I have no family ...

If your prescription is for a controlled substance, a pain patch for example, you must hand carry the prescription to the pharmacy. It can only be written for 30 days and It can't be phoned in or transferred. We have had the doctor mail the prescription to General Delivery and picked up from the post office, then taken to WalMart. Not something we like to do, and try to plan travels to avoid this, but sometimes it has to be done this way.
True.
The DEA has made life more difficult for the chronic pain patient, as if it weren't painful enough. The doctor must see you ~ every three months to continue to dispense pain meds.
