@truthseekr7771 in my case it was the provider. Not the insurance. My neurologist could have taken 10 minutes to review my case since I had been waiting a week. He said he was going to suddenly cut off the clonazepam he was prescribing me instead of increasing it when I’m in the middle of an intensive flare of symptoms, which is a breach of duty of care and I’m willing to take this case to the cleaners if I need to because I’m sick of paying for care I’m not receiving.

@drmermaidfish1 also it’s not the lack of increase in meds I’m angry at. It’s the poor communication or concern for my symptoms, along with a threat to just stop meds that I’ve been on for nearly 3 years that are 1) dangerous to withdraw from suddenly, 2) not recommended to even taper during a pain flare due to a he physical and psychological stress a taper plus the flare up can cause 3) no other solution offered other than to to ER.
