marnie, I agree with Legitimate, Report this PA to the Dr, afterall didn't your Dr prescribe this for you? How dare he, question your DR's prescribing method!
My sister-in-law, is a nurse, she has went back to school to become a PA, she keeps saying that she will soon be a DR?
IMO, PA's are just that "Assistants", but most think they know way more, than any DR. I don't believe they are even qualified to write narcotic meds, Go to your Dr with this complaint, and get this jerk reprimanded for humiliating you!
