Hi, nice to meet you all. I’m Chronically Awesome. I am finding issues with the supply shortage, because my doctors cannot get the medication that helps me. Does anyone else experience this?

      This has totally happened to me! Have to go to several different pharmacies and fight with them that my med allows me to be semi-normal! I have issues getting name brand Lyrica which is what I take for my Fibro

      I’m sorry you’re having trouble getting your meds—that sounds so frustrating! What I really wanted to say, though, was that I appreciate the phrase Chronically Awesome! That made me laugh. 😄 Hope you can get your meds more reliably again soon!

      I can’t find a single doctor that even wants to consider giving me any kind of pain meds.

      I get lidocaine infusions. There are shortages on lidocaine and IV bags.
