I have been prescribed diazepam as a muscle relaxant for some time. I prefer it to others because I don't have a lot of the negative side effects I had on other musculoskeletal meds and I am able to function and actually work, which I NEED to do. Yesterday I went to an "interview" for a private case for a baby who is still in NICU. It sounds like a nice case to have every other weekend. Anyhow, Mom asked for a copy of my BLS for HCP and when I reached into my purse to get my wallet my pill bottle for diazepam fell out unto the floor. Dad picked it up and (WHY?!) looked at the label before handing it to me. Neither parent said anything at the time and said they would call me to set up a time to meet again after the baby came home. Today I received a text message that reads: "What mental illness do you have that requires use of valium?" I couldn't stop the tears from laughter. I replied simply, "none, that I know of." I haven't heard back. I can tell now, this case will not be a good fit.
