Are your pain management meds dispensed from the Pain Management Clinic or do you get your meds filled at a pharmacy? If from a pharmacy, do you have an refills remaining?

If from a pharmacy and there are no refills remaining, if you go by a pharmacy in NJ and explain the situation, they may be able to give you just enough pills to get you through the weekend or until your pain management clinic opens once again.
