Pharmacies & Travel: The pharmacy is where you go to for this question. Many will manage and mail your prescriptions as needed. The physician is not involved unless they need to authorize refills. Many pharmacies offer this service to their patients.

Question 2

hi doctors! i have a 3 day work conference in norwalk,connecticut with all lectures outdoors ( with tents provided if bad weather) but probably all meals indoors. is this medically  safe? don't know the home states of other attendees. i can distance?

Accepted Answer

Yes and no: The sooner we move out of the yes and no or 1 and 0 era, the better. It all depends on how we define safety. Distancing and wearing a mask should help if talking about COVID. Otherwise use your instincts as it is likely that with a large group meeting during a pandemic the anxiety level will be high. Distancing will always help, unfortunately not sustainable.

Question 3

i have a conference in connecticut--all lectures are scheduled to be outdoors, weather permitting, with tents. meals will be served private, presumably following covid procedures, policies, and regulations.  doctors--does this sound/seem safe to you?

Accepted Answer

COVID concerns:  Safety is a relative issue.  There is less for chance for transmission of COVID 19 in an outdoor environment. If tents are used - than with flaps up for ventilation is preferrable. Maintaining a distance of at least 2 meters and consistent use of mask is still needed.

please suggest what type of topical painkiller is best for electrolysis?

Prescription Meds: Your doctor may be willing to prescribe a topical anesthetic to apply about 45 minutes before your treatment.

A dental block, particularly for the sensitive upper lip area, may be available also. Some people use no meds at all, and do fine!
