Hi Pambird

I'm glad your family is so supportive. I agree it

essential to be discreet about our prescriptions,

especially narcotics, and benzodiazepines.

It is also very important to go to a pharmacy that is

trustworthy. I know that professional thieves pay bank

tellers to let them know when someone takes out large

sums of cash, or mention that they are going on

vacation etc.

It stands to reason, that they would also pay someone

who works in a pharmacy too. I would also recommend

that we remove, or at least mark out any information

on an empty pill bottle.

Also, keep your narcotics locked up, and not in the

medicine cabinet. It's too easy for anyone who is in

your home to go into the bathroom, and take your

medication.

Several members have had medications stolen, and even

with a police report, find it almost impossible to

have a new prescription written by their physician.

It also puts a red flag of suspicion in your chart,

that makes it look like your are selling your

medications. None of us need that!
