Do i need my doctor's permission to refill my prescription (xanax) at Kaiser Permanente?

he gave me a prescription for only 20 xanax pills and they are 0.5 mg (a low dose in my opinion). and i find that 3.0 mg is what works best for my social anxiety. so if i were to want to take 3.0 mg, then i would need to take 6 of those pills he prescribed me. so i want to know if i want a refill on my prescription, do i need to go through him first or can i just go straight to the pharmacy? also, it seemed to me like i wouldn't need his permission to get a refill because on the website it said something about how i can get a refill online. so which is it? do i need his permission or no?

My jaw has been dislocated for four days?

So, i've had problems with my jaw for a while now (six months?) and it sometimes Pops out, i just move it and it goes back in but it hurts like hell. Anyway, sometimes in the morning its out and I pop it back in. But woke up few days ago and I couldn't get it back in. I've tried everything (expect the doctor/dentist cause I'm broke) and its been four days still hurts like heck and i can't open my mouth very far, can hardly eat/bite. I'm going to try and get a doctor to look at it tomorrow but my question is: Does it matter if it's out for this long? Wll it make it worse?

What should I do? ? RehAb?

Ok so I'm about to go to college and I think I have a drug problem... I'm scared but I don't want to admit it because I'm embarrassed and feel ashamed due to my parents. A month ago I overdosed and was rushed to the er via ambulance .. My heart stopped. I had taken adderall, Xanax, hydrocodone, and smoked pot. I've done cocaine before, other benzos, other stimulants, antidepressants, antipsychotics, ambien, and more. I haven't smoked pot since the incidence but I think about and dream about drugs all day, every day; it's starting to scare me. There's not a day I don't think about or crave drugs. I have reguraly taken Xanax for the past 3 years and I would say I'm addicted to bars. I'm scared of weed after what happened but I still want to smoke again. After the incident, my parents and school made me go to a drug counselor psychologist who wanted me to go to drug and alcohol rehab. I drink everyday too, usually 5+ drinks that include vodka. Drugs and alcohol make me feel powerful, special, and rid me of my anxiety and also make me feel more sociable. I talked my parents out of rehab and essentially manipulated them not to send me.. My school administrators advised them to send me too because I came High to school every day and really didn't care but I still managed decent grades. My parents still listened to me and didn't send me to rehab but now I'm starting to regret that because I'm beginning to realize and think that I might actually have a problem. And after nearly losing my life to drugs, I'm scared for college and losing control. My family has money and I think that's a contributing factor to my drug problem because I know I really don't ever have to work for anything but at the same time I don't want to be the stereotypical trust fund stay at home and do nothing. I want to be productive but at the same time I like being with my friends and partying. Lots of my high school friends have been to rehab amd went back to partying when they came back w the drug

Do I choose my wife of 7 yrs or my 15 yr old son??

My wife has told me to choose him or her. He came to live with me from his mother two years ago. He was having some issues with her and we though it may be better with me. He was ok at first but between getting older and hanging out with the wrong people he as gotten worst. I have tried everything from spanking, taking things away, lecture ect. nothing seems to work. He has got in trouble with the law because he got in a fight with his step father at their house and was charged with assault. He has smoked Marijuana with his friends and some things at the house have came up missing. when i question him about it of course he has no idea what happen to it. My wife said she has a 7 yr old daugher (my step daughter) that should not be exposed to all of this so she told me he cannot spend one more night in our house. either he leaves or she will. She wants him to move back with his mother where he was fightng with his step dad in the first place. Him and his mother do not get along at all. Do I send him there were I know he will be unhappy or tell my wife to leave? Tough choice. Right now he is in Juvienile detetention for 6 days for probabtion violation. I hope and pray that six days of being locked up teaches him something. when I pick him up wednesday i am taking him to a rehab where he will get treatment for his substance abuse and hopefully his anger issues. He will be in patient for 90-120 days. Even after all that my wife said she does not want him in our house. not even to visit for a long time. She makes these comments about him all the time about how he is an idiot and it is starting to wear on me...what do I do?????

A recovering addict seeking help with anxiety?

I am an addict who has horrible anxiety attacks, but i can not take any kind of narcotic such as Xanax or anything of that nature because i have abused them badly. I am recently out of treatment and was taking buspar but my anxiety is still so bad that sometimes I feel like i cant even breathe, I mean they are horrible and they happen everyday! I'm so tired of living like this and I just wanted to know if anyone has any answers for me because I don't have a Dr I can go to either because I am uninsured now. Please help! I just want to feel normal. I've done the whole trying to relax thing, but NOTHING seems to help, it has kept me from working because I get them so bad at work that I cant do my job.

If Daud surrenders with his money,wealth,arms&prays for clemency before the President,is it posible to forgive?

Some years back, I read in a local newspaper that once Daud expressed his willingness to return to his motherland, that is India, on condition that he may be given clemency. I don't know whether this report was true or false. But it is a natural desire for every human beings to return to his own motherland, where he or she has spent all his moments of life starting from the childhood days, teenage, and youth. Someone's past or present life may be related with crimes, but among them, few have also a desire to lead a normal life where no one will hate him or fear him, but he or she will be accepted by the society and loved by the people, and he will not have to live a life in isolation from the society or the country. I have seen that Abu has been returned to our country, and he is now in the jail, and he is wishing that someday he may be released from the jail and live a life like a normal man. But here the question is that many lives has been expired due to their past crimes. And the people who have lost their near and dear ones, they may want and try in every way at every stage that he may be hanged by the court of law. My question is simply a legal one. From the legal point of view, is it possible that even after such high crime records, if he desires to live a normal life returning to India, and prays for forgiveness before the President of India and be prepared to live some of his life years behind the bar, is it possible that he may be pardoned under the Indian Penal Code and Judiciary system?
