Whatever....8 PM call to pharmacy nuttin.

This morning I called the docs office..... records said I was given prescriptions. BS....The office was informed that NO I'd never received the scrips and they were "supposedly" sent electronically. Docs office apologized and said they made a mistake and would call the pharmacy right away. I said I'd be in to get the scrips from the docs office and deliver them myself. They assured me they'd be called into the pharmacy. I reluctantly said OK. 1 hour later I picked up my scrips from the pharmacy.

A word of advice - Hand carry your scrips to the pharmacy of your choice to ensure they're received. Oh yeah & last May my scrips were sent to the wrong pharmacy. Another reason to hand carry & deliver the scrips yourself especially if the pharmacy is near your home.

Ya can't make this stuff up.

Life is good. Cold but no snow.
So true.....so common....lot of meatheads out there.....must have the same Doc.
