I hate those self righteous pharmacists as well...I have dealt with some not

so nice ones, at Walmart and at Rite Aid....Now I go thru the pharmacy

affiliated with my doctor's practice (Geisinger) right next door to the doctor's

office, and they don't bat an eye or give me a hard time..

Hi Darlene,

Good to hear from you.

The scripts are written correctly and could be refilled. My pharmacy is just

being arrogant and not caring what the doctor says. It's OK I just waited the

few days. I could have had the doctor call and tell them to do it, but it

wasn't something I wanted to make that big a deal out of. They already had me

pegged as a drug seeker and I didn't want to give them any more ammunition for

their impudence.

TTFN,

Marti

to do was have the dr rewrite the 'script so that they COULD refill

for my next fix at all (thankfully!), but I have had other folks

treat me like one! So too bad for them, I will take what I have to

have and phoey on them.

I just wish that we all could find doctors and pharmacists who

believed us and believed in us; unfortunately, I think too many of

them have been burned by folks who aren't honest and all that jazz.

So we get to pay the price.....sigh....

If a pharmacy did that to me I would drop kick their a-- to China! It is NONE

of their BUSINESS!! My health and my meds are between me and my Dr. not the

" moral " pharmacist and has no clue what we deal with. I would seriously talk

with the manager, I would call in a news station. I'm sure it is some violation

and can be reprimanded for it. I've been lucky, no pharmacy has ever given me a

hard time....yet I can understand you not wanting to make a big deal out of

it though......you've been thru enough lately. I'll have to come down there and

let them have it!
