I know I'm gonna regret writng this, but I WAS red flagged 3 years ago just cause I went to the hospital too many times in a short period of time. I got absoutly no narcotics (that I remember) so I wasnt red flagged for that, but now I'm on restriction with my insurance, which means I'm only allowed to use one doctor's office (doesn't count specialists), one pharmacy (which I have ALWAYS used one pharmacy, and I love them and love the fact that ther're around the corner form me), and one hospital (which is great, cause I love that hospital, but what if I'm ever out of town when I need one). But what happened was that I cut my finger with a knife
opening a big bag of M&Ms, and had to get stitches. Well they gave me a tetanus shot, which I was due for, and everything was fine and dandy. Well the next day I woke up with my neck muscle really tightened, and by noon, this muscle tightness had crept down to my waist, I could hardly move. So I called my doctor, and she told me to go the ER. So I went and they said it was an allergic reaction due to the tetanus shot, so I was giving benadryl and muscle relaxers, and felt way better after my first dose. Well a few days went by and my finger got really infected, so I had to go back due to my doctor telling me to. Then 2 days later I ran into a door like a retard and got a contusion on my foot (or so they say, they wouldnt xray it and it bruised and swelled up like crazy, and took a few years to completly stop hurting). So just like that, I'm red flagged and looked at badly whenever they see I'm on restriction cause I guess most people on restriction (I have state insurance cause I'm on disability) are drug addicts. And I was gonna fight it, but then I moved out of state for a while, but then when I moved back it was too late cause you only have 90 days to ask for a hearing. So you can get red flagged so easily, and just because the pharmacy didn't notify the doctor, doesnt mean they wont find out, they have their ways.
