Call or see doctor: Your doctor should decide whether you should be seen or, if symptoms are typical and no risk for new STD exposure, maybe re-prescribe by phone. So a phone call may be sufficient. Otherwise, in the US there's no way to get a prescripition drug. (You probably could do it on line, but for the reasons above, I don't recommend it.) Also, you can ask about preventive Rx, e.g. MetroGel® or boric acid.
