MEDICATION QUESTION

I've ordered the CD's and supplements but I just can't bring myself to discuss the prescription with my doctor. I prefer to do this myself, since I've always lied to him as to how much I drink. Can anyone recommend a reputable website that I can purchase the Topomax on line and not have to wait 5 weeks to get it? Any info would be most appreciated...

I used this link. It took about a week and a half. I am into my second week of using the Topa. I got this link from one of the discussion links in here.

cruize, what about going to a new doc. start out fresh with honesty and see where ya get. It might save you some money plus have a doc to bounce off of. He will respect you more and could be a good doc/patient relationship. just a thought.....gabby

My physician was proud that I realize I have a problem and want to work on it with her to try and get better. Good luck with this!

Thank you for reposting the link for Topa online. I have tried the program without the meds, did good for about 3 weeks and fell off big time. I would love to go to my doctor for the meds, but I have Kaiser in USA, which is very unpersonal and and they go by the book. So maybe I could get Campral, but having been on meds for stomach problems I know what having a medication on my medical record can do when you need to change insurance. I just received my new supplements and dusted off the CD's. Feeling good about coming back!

oh great, I have Kaiser too, and have made an appt for this Thursday to talk to my doc about this...and I have never seen her before...boy, can't wait for this appt :(

Great, I really want to hear about the appt. I just have this scenerio that they are going ship me off to the Mental Health Department, then I will have to wait to see them and then they will want me to attend some group or another. See I've got myself all worked up over it. I hope this is not the case as the meds would be a lot cheaper.

Okay..I am now dreading my dr appt tomorrow. I have no clue how to start out the conversation. Like "Hello Doc, I'm an alcoholic and I need you to prescribe Topamax for me..." or "Ahem...see I've been doing all this research...so I know much more then you and I think you should give me this prescription..."... HOw do I start out? I know I am going to be so nervous that I am going to blurt out everything in one long sentence and the poor doc will have absolutely no clue as to what I am talking about... Okay deep breath..I will do just fine..hah hah. I'm just afraid that she will recommend AA and have I tried that and if not how do I know that AA would not work for me...blah blah... For the first time I have found something that is really working for me ...okay I am starting to babble now so I'll just sign off...appt is tomorrow 11:40 mountain time..I'll be even worse tomorrow 8o

Sorry, I didn't mean to get you caught up in my fears. There must be someone out there that has been through the Kaiser model. I once wanted a small mole removed and the GP who I waited a month to see, sent me to dermatology, which took 2 months to get in. Funny, sad, but true. I am hoping someone will pop up and give us their experience with Kaiser before tomorrow, anyone? anyone? I did call to get an appointment myself on Monday and the soonest I could get in was 3 weeks from now, so you are already doing better then me. I have not cancelled the appt, but I did order the topa online. I feel the same way about group, like most here, this is a very private thing for me. Be Brave, you are almost there!

wow! That link is expensive! I used the following link for the generic and just cut the tabs in quarters to titrate up.
