I understand that but why must I pay for an office visit for having their
scribble on a prescription slip for medications I've taken for the better
part of my life.  Insulin dependence is not something that goes away; at
least, I've never heard of it.  If you know better, I'd like to hear.  I
have a number of maintenance dependent meds I need to consume.  They cost
me dearly yearly.  Explain why I have to pay the blackmail to get them???
The other thing that ruffles my feathers it the d'rat giving away syringes
to the heroin and meth junkies but I need to get an Rx and pay for needed
supplies.  Of course, junkies vote for d'rats.  Nevermind, I've answered
that for myself.
