Answering Service Posted: 10-26-03 03:18am
Hey, call your doctors office. A lot of
times doctors offices have an answering
service (for when the office is closed)
the answering service can have your doctor
(or another doctor that's on call) paged.
You leave your name and number with the
operator (at the answering service) and
the doctor calls you back.
Usually they have no problem renewing your
prescription.
Some offices don't have an answering
service, so this may not help, but I
thought you should give it a go!
I don't know if it's such a good idea for
you to take your sisters pills... Not
only will it leave her out of a pill, and
in a jam at the end of her supply... But
also, I don't know how transferable birth
control pills are.
If your doctors office doesn't have an
answering service... Call the hospital,
and ask them about taking your sisters
pills... I'm sure they will have an
answer for you, and even if they don't
there are plenty of docs around there that
they can ask! : )
