Yeah well the tale was not done. I was like, "Oh SHOOT OMG it's SATURDAY they close at like 5 on Saturdays," So I calloed IMMEDIATELY and the pharmacist was like cautiously, "We just received them." Then I was like,, "So cool see you at the drive through in 10 minutes." Then the pharmacist said he couldn't fill either because they were both WRONG. Like the abx could cause a "fatal arrhythmia" with lithium, which to be sort of fair to the doc I think I have had that abx with NO ill effects before and it's some elongated Q-T thing which I was fretting about with my pdoc one time and he was like "You get it. Or, you don't. But, if you are on two or more Q-T elevating meds, which you are, you are not going to die." I was like "Ever?" and he was like, "Not from THAT, ever." My doc is an MD/PhD I trust him with such arcane matters.
So it may have been the pharmacist just freaking about opiates and death and "OMG someone died of a stubbed toe this one time!" thing. Which if that is my life now, at pharmacies, I am going to KILL myself because like every time I GO they will counsel me on death. I try not to think about it.
But he gave me some weird methy-prednisone and he told me 5 days worth but not the dose or anything I FEAR prednisone because like, it makes me batty, I negotiate DOWN from 5 mg a day, "Like I bet 2.5 works" but it don't. Anyway I told the pharmacist I was not leaving with SOMETHING and I come to find out it is STRONGER than prednisone an he gave me 16 m.g. per DAY. Dude. So like, I'm taking it but I am also like, "that is the issue with teledocs they don't KNOW you." I mean he knew I was nuts, i made that clear. But, I might be less likely and I quote "to lose touch with reality " but that might make murdering someone EASIER you know? Like I would have better planning skills.
THIS WHOLE time I was dealing with the patient reps and they got sick of me and put my number to VM eventually. When I got home I star sixty nined em--I was not HAVING it. I was like, LOOK, I just need to know if I can take this weird steroid is this ACTUALLY what he prescribed. She said yes, and she said he was "researching" the other abx very carefully and I was like "DUDE he ISN'T from the sounds of him during the visit he is out getting WASTED so as a little hang over remedy like, the pharmacy here opens at 10 AZ time."
Grr. I mean I feel slightly better but also worse. I would say I would locate this "practice owner' or board tomorrow to have words with them but like, seriously, probably not. I got notes I have to do. At least I am less hoarse."
So yeah, part 2 NOT COOL AT ALL. Although seriously I think it ma be pharmacy issue, that or like, all the Tucson pharmacies hated me and actively SOUGHT my death, that too is also possible.
Gotta eat. SO not hungry even at ALL 10 mins, I give me.
