Needs to be prescribed in the US if I understand correctly and some people will have to lie to their doctors to get it.
Yeah, getting meto in the US requires a level of stress and theater that is beyond me, too.
I think overall you have easier access to healthcare and healthcare providers than a lot of US citizens do. After a big gap in medical history, showing up somewhere to ask for a specific drug (with no record of ever trying the first-line drugs) would be unlikely to work without a particular type of confidence and personality and ability to lie convincingly that a lot of us just don't have. I'm not saying it's impossible, but certain demographics are more likely to succeed here.
I ordered it online. I just lied in my answers. I still got it. It went to my friends address though and I collected it from them.
I don't know of a way to do that simply here through "the system." Maybe someone will correct me and tell me I'm mistaken. But I think that's the answer your original question about what's so hard about getting it: the way US healthcare works, we have to interact with the prescribers. That's leaving aside that it generally costs money--possibly a lot of money relative to what a low-wage worker earns.
Yes. And the only places I found to order online all seemed to be scam sites, even the one recommended by the PPH.
GoodRX seems to be a site that gives you coupons to get discounts on prescriptions.
They have an online service that prescribes. Theres a lot of teladoc in US, many began after COVID and still exist. But GoodRX is most known for their coupons
That's good to know. I'm seeing it is $49, which is less expensive than urgent care / walk in places. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who's done this (not necessarily for meto, just in general) and how it went. Like, was it at all useful, or did they take your money and then tell you to go see someone in person?
I mean, the healthcare situation for very many people really does suck in the US.
This is very similar to my own experience. Ironically I think Covid has helped, with online assessments now being offered more freely to avoid face-to-face consultations.
Tardive dyskinesia is no joke. I had it once and luckily recovered. I can't imagine any doctor I know being easily manipulated into prescribing meto. I am grateful for this thread because it seems like much of the time on this board meto is presented as being almost effortless to obtain. Apparently it is in other countries, which I didn't realize. You lucky folks in the UK, I guess.
Really, there have been several? They don't seem to be in the google doc file of successful sn stories other than one who took lorazepam. That would give me some hope...
