Have run out of pain pills. Cannot afford to see the doctor again to renew my prescription.

Do you have to make an appointment to have him/her renew the script? Sometimes they will just call them into the pharmacy.

Call your doctor and explain the situation. Often they'll call in a rx for you without an exam.

If she/he won't, go to a free clinic. There's one in most medium-sized cities.

Even if you have health insurance it is possible to qualify for Free Care. If you find a health clinic or a hospital that works with lower-income populations they'll often have a financial representative you can meet with who can help figure out your options.
