a few days ago i hurt my back at work. ive been on bedrest since and today i had to travel back to the emergency room to be reevaluated.
its either a muscle or a disc and in both cases theres not much to do other than treat the pain and wait for it to heal.
i got a script for 12 percocet's. since i was in pain my fiancee took the perscription to the drug store to get it filled. i have an account with these pharmacies and he had the perscription so i didnt see a problem with him filling it.
he gave the pharmacist my script and he looked me up on the computer. sure enuff i did have an acct there but he refused to fill the script. my finacee didnt have my insurance card.
12 percocet's arent even covered by my insurance.
my fiancee asked the pharmacist to call me at home to verify the script.
he said no.
i had to get dressed and go to the pharmacy myself.
now i understand that percocet is a controlled substance but for goodness sake if someone is going to try to sneak drugs thru like that it stands to reason they would try to get more than 12.
in addition my fiancee gave the pharmacist my address and my other personal info.
yeah i was pissed but i could still kinda understand it still since im a nurse.
i got out of bed, got dressed and went to the pharmacy. at first i thought i was in the land of keebler facing one of the elves.
i put the script on the counter and asked him why i needed to stop bedrest to come in for such a stupid little perscription.
he went on telling me about the controlled substance law....blah blah blah...
i told him i know ...im a nurse.
then he starts telling me that he told my fiance that he only needed to bring in my insurance card to pick that up.
well ok...whatever.....just fill the perscription.
he took the script and walked behind the counter. in a few minutes he came back out and complained about the way my fiancee was looking at him.
"he looks like he is staring holes straight thru me. if he doesnt stop im not filling this"
i couldnt believe this...lol
i didnt care who was looking at who how...i just wanted my script filled. i was in a lot of pain and i wanted to go back to bed.
i told him...look, just fill the damn perscription.
he said...one more word and im not filling this.
my fiancee and i just looked at each other.
the pharmacist went behind the counter and in a few minutes he came back out to complain again about how he was being looked at...
nobody was looking at him like anything. i thought the script was just about filled. he kept coming from behind the counter and goading us.
i had enuff and yelled....just fill the damn perscription ok?
he went behind the counter and came back out again telling me he didnt like my attitude when i said to just fill the damn perscription. and he wasnt going to fill it if i kept that up.
LOOK JUST GIVE ME THAT DAMN PERSCRIPTION BACK!
i went down the road and got it filled somewhere else.
