misliz,
Sounds like you're right on with the hysterical bit needed for the drop ship. I called my old psychiatrist and that's what his assistant advised. Yes, the doctor's letter is a nice little obstacle they put in the way, isn't it.

Unfortunately, Pfizer responded to my doctor's letter saying they didn't have any supply to drop ship. One can only hope they are being honest when they say they should have a supply in hand by the first week in December.

I will try the call to my insurance company to see if they're willing to do anything, though. Your suggested approach gets right down to the bottom line, too--thanks.

I appreciate your comments about Pfizer's liability. That seems almost hardest to understand--especially after a tip from my father's friend to look at www.af-pharmacists.org in their publications/recalls section. It shows that on SEPTEMBER 17 Pfizer issued a recall because the Nardil they were producing didn't meet the required "assay specs on stability." So those b*stards knew that they were going to run out all the way back in September and made no attempt to inform people so we could seek alternate treatments in a timely manner. And, of course, the guy at Pfizer's 800 number didn't mention this. (Creeps!!!!!!)

I, too, don't feel it's interchangeable. And to not give people adequate time to have the choice to go off the drug and start another. Shame on them. I've been thinking about writing my Congressional reps, but everyone else has just kind of shrugged their shoulders when I've brought it up. Thank you for being the first one to volunteer this and to share a belief in the principle of social accountability! God knows they've made enough money off of me!

Cheers,
Nardil Queen
