I'm confused.  Your friend got the script from a doctor, filled it, and then mailed it to you?  Had a pharmacy mail it to you?  You didn't go to the doc yourself b/c no insurance or... why?  Can you just call whomever and find out if it's been sent? 

My friend ordered meds over the Internet; they did go through customs.  They held them.  I don't think she had an honest script, though, and she didn't have a very good experience. 

If yours is an honest script, then I'd call and find out what the hold up is.  If it's kind of sort of sneaky (even for an A/B) I might not push it.  21 days is a long time, then again, maybe not for an honest med to pass through all it has to.  Again, if this is on the up and up, a call should clear it up.

Sorry, just tring to make the question as easy as possible. The drug needs to start today and used for upto 6 weeks.I live in US. The mail order in Canada is much cheaper but takes maybe 3 weeks to get. Its about $10,000 in US drug stores and $4,000 in canada. I have a US doctor and a US perscription and I can send the scipt to a friend in Canada. He will fill it and send it express mail. I will have the drug in 2-3 days. My insurance will not cover drugs. The question is will custom hold the package up or send it threw.

It's illegal to send drugs through the US Mail.  Fed Ex, UPS, not.  (Well, maybe so, but not under a federal law like the postal service). However, if it just looks like your package is a gift from a friend, it should have arrived.  I would call (email?) your friend and ask when it was sent.  That should answer your question. 

I'm sorry to hear this happened, if it is indeed being held up by customs.  Since it's not a narcotic, it really ought to reach you.  I hope you get your meds soon.
