When they can't find my medicine

Tweet

I take only a few medicines, but most of them are for the pain because of the fibromyalgia. Unfortunately, a couple of them I have to take in liquid form because the pills have corn starch in them and, as my friends all are probably tired of hearing about it, I'm allergic to corn. So, I have twice gone to the pharmacy and seen the tech looking all over the place for one of my medicines. Both times I was in the drive through and both times I had to hit the speaker. "Yes?" they answer. "Its in the refrigerator," I tell them. Granted, it was two different techs, but really... just because the pills don't need to be refrigerated... Now, its not always liquids I have to take, my Sumatriptan (Imitrix) doesn't come in liquid form - probably a good thing - but before it came in the nasal spray I had to take it as a shot. As vile as the nasal spray is, its better than sticking a needle in me. And, as vile as it is, I actually got an antibiotic that was worse! I didn't realize how bad the antibiotic was, I mean, I knew it was nasty, then when I got a migraine a few months later and took a spray of Imitrix, I was... this isn't so bad... why is that? Oh YEAH! Now, aren't you glad you can swallow a pill?
