U.S. OP Requirements...

Just wondering if you DBers out there can provide me with info on OP requirements... Was in process of requesting consult with one of the more highly recommended sites yesterday, but stopped when I got to the line where I had to confirm that I had been seen by physician within last 30 days. Since I did not wish to be untruthful, I did not submit the request. I do not currently have insurance (back in school full time - limited budget) and have not seen a doctor in quite some time. Thought that going through US OP would be viable option for obtaining pain medication for migraines / "cluster" headaches.(My wife used to have prescription for Vicoprophen, which she was happy to share when I needed them, but has switched PCP's and no longer gets them.) What I mean is, if I had seen a doc within the last month, why would I need to pay $120 to consult with another doctor? Since I do not have a doctor that I see regularly and therefore no established history, I do not want my first visit to local doc to be for the purpose of requesting pain meds. Can any of you experienced OP users give me some advice on what to do / where to go to get some relief? Please PM me with any info that you feel would be best kept off the boards...
Thanks! -Tripp
