I would call whichever pharmacy you want to cancel first thing in the AM. They won’t submit the claim until they have it in stock and are filling it.
Question for the docs here while I wait on day 3 for my anticoagulant prescrip to get filled. My UC doc said my DVT was much lower down my leg than last time. Like calf or ankle height. To quote the ultrasound report:
This sounds not all that bad, right? I get what patent and unremarkable means. There’s just this bitty thing in some bitty vein.
@DSeid, @Qadgop_the_Mercotan, @Tibby
Obviously any clot can be serious, but I’ve been freaking out a bit since Saturday and it’s Monday now. No news isn’t really good news I think. Thanks for pointers.
Yes, it sounds not all that bad. The thrombus has not extended itself into your proximal veins so that’s real good as proximal vein clots are far, far more likely to cause problems if they migrate. You’re on a proper anticoagulant to reduce the risk of said extension.
Not a bad report, considering. Your clot is in your left posterior tibial vein (below the knee). It’s a type of distal (away from center of body) DVT, which is less likely to cause serious complications, like pulmonary embolism. But it’s still important to anti-coagulate and follow all your doctor’s orders.
Good luck!
Here’s a simple graphic of the vein in question:
Thanks @Qadgop_the_Mercotan and @Tibby. Does this mean I can fly to Japan in 5 weeks? Kidding, I’ll asked the hematologist. Seems like a good chance though.
I just finally after nearly 3 days got my anti-coag prescription filled.
Don’t get sick on the weekend, folks!
If I were you, I’d avoid sitting cross-legged in the desert with no water, while smoking, and eating foods rich in vitamin K (clotting factor). So, if that was your plan for the weekend, I’d reconsider. 
For future reference, this is the approach. Some stores will even tell you which other branches have it in stock.
The CVS near us has screwed me on out-of-stock meds on multiple occasions, including sitting on a prescription for literally weeks because “the manager who orders isn’t on duty today” and then they just forgot it.
I’ve never tried to do this with a different chain (e.g. Walgreens to CVS) but for different locations of the same chain, yeah - easy. Had to do this with several last year; we spent several weeks in another state, I ran out of one of my regular meds (due to doc office screwups), I had them call the meds into a local store, and when we came back home, I transferred it here for refills.
My local pharmacist is an independent, so if he can transfer the scrip to anyone, he can transfer it to “a different chain”.
Is it easyish to transfer back? I have a default pharmacy because it’s convenient. The other pharm by definition is less so. I might need my meds ASAP hence “let’s call around and see!”, but the refills are “available a few days before” is kinda okay.
What I’ve run into is transferring once exactly, but that was years ago.
I was reading these posts and am fishing in a similar spot. The foot injury and blood clots don’t seem to so readily apply to a chronic condition I have but it is very informative.
