I have encountered time and time again issues with filling my monthly prescriptions. (Such as my pain medicine.) It frustrates me that I have to take the medicine in the first place and then to encounter problems. I often think to myself, if I was a diabetic and this was insulin would I still have problems??
Yesterday the pharmacist did not want (not the WANT) to give me my medicine. It was Saturday, so I could not reach my physician so I had to go out of my way and see another doctor. That doctor called the pharmacist and really ripped them a new one (I got some pleasure out of that.) and low and behold I got my medicine filled right away.
I know what happened, it was not the normal pharmacist working that day and the one that happened to be working was extremely biased about my medicine. Has anyone encountered this???
I normally don’t like talking about my medicine for fear of how I will be perceived. I think society has some major judgments on the medicine that helps me live my life. However, after this happening time and time again I want to know if others feel / have the same issues.
Now I feel like bringing this to everyone’s attention (sending a complaint) to the pharmacist headquarters.
I feel like it was a case of discrimination because of the medicine I have to take to live my life. I'm I alone on this issue or do others sometime have the same problem.
