[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 548299, member: 11847"] Janet, they cannot force you in any way. No matter the argument they try using. I would be VERY suspicious of any doctor refusing to look inti a second opinion/new datas (as in your new MRI). If you need the RX, you don' have to rush thing. You can keep this clinic until you find a new one. A year ago I was on state family planning (medicaid for family planning and routine female exam). I went in to take my implant out. It was kind of an emergency as it was making me VERY sick. The nurse gives me a gown and asks me to undress for a pap smear. WHAT??? the implant is in my arm! And I said that I was not having a pap... Another nurse came in and told me that I had to have one because it was more than 1 year. I still said no. She came back and said that I will then not be covered under flamily planning for the implant removal. I said fine, I'll just use my high deductible (offers a bit of a discount) but REMOVE THIS STUPID IMPLANT!!!! Still nothing, someone comes back asking for proof of insurance. I was livid! I said I was in the system already but still gave my ins. card. They made me sign a paper stating that I was responsible for paying... I have NEVER received a bill for anything, the implant removal was covered even though I refused a recommanded medical procedure. Your body is not to be touched without your permission, no matter what kind of argument bad doctors will use (of course good doctors would never act like this, they care about the patients not the money).
