the military never likes to give drugs to people that could be habit forming...i had a surgery and they sent me home with no painkillers... i didn't want to ask for them b/c i felt like if i did i'd seem like an adict or something, and if they didnt give me them they must have thought i didnt need them.
i went threw two days of hell calling every doctor and hospial professional and finally filed a formal complaint.. but in the end, my pain went away before it was resolved.
adivan is sometimes seen to be addictive or abused, so that could be why they dont want to use it.
the next time you go in, ask for it, tell them it works and you're sick of getting things that dont work b/c that doesnt help you. there is no reason for you to be in pain (you take it for headaches, i've taken it for anxiety i didn tknow it was used for headaches)... if they dont prescirbe it, ask for a referral, THEY HAVE TO GIVE YOU A REFERALL for a second opinion. they may just give you the script instead of sending you off to someone else...
my mom is a doc at the va and trust me they can do for you want you need done.
she always tells me "there is no reason for you to be in pain" so if she says it, as a doc, and a mom, it must be true so they should do something!
