Guest guest Posted October 17, 2001 Report Share Posted October 17, 2001 The pharmacists here are having a hard time getting 1 mg. prednisone. Don't know why, but the last time I refilled I had to wait about 5 days before they could get it. Then it was in those little things where you had to punch them out, that was absolute chaos. The pill kept breaking apart. Finally, I called the druggist and told him this just wasn't working. He was able to finally get some loose ones, but said lots of his customers were upset because they were not getting the 1 mgs like they were supposed to. From now on when I need to refill I will make sure to do it long before I run out. Love, Marilyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2001 Report Share Posted October 17, 2001 - if I had persevered and spent another three days badgering people I MIGHT have got it, but if you annoy people too much I find they have a way of exacting revenge!! (Thats why I amnever rude to waiters, or people who do the apointments in hospital, or airline checkin people.....) anyway I have an appt with the rheumy in three weeks, so I can survive! Yes, I am quite safe, Riyadh is a pretty safe place. I think most of the dissidents followed Osama bin Laden. The most dangerous thing here is just being on the road - the driving is awful!! The girls are trying to swing a short trip to Paris next week, but I doubt that under the present circumstances the boss will let them go. We will see. I am pretty busy with the dogs. Ty6son, the youngest, still wakes up ant 5.30 and wants to go out. So we all go outfor 10 minutes, then we all go back to bed!!! , next summer (God willing) I am going to try to get a weekend off and comeand visit you. I don't want to wait three years, either!!
