Sometimes, the stresses of life can seem truly overwhelming. You solve one issue and the next day another problem crops up. Sort of like whack a mole.
I realized this morning that I had not gotten an e mail from the pharmacy telling my my prescription was ready. I take one prescription daily–once a day, in the morning. It is a breathing medication and should be taken at the same time every day. I am scrupulous about the time. I called Walgreens and by some miracle got through to the pharmacy. That’s a once-in-a-millenium piece of luck. The pharmacist informed me that the prescription had been cancelled. Cancelled? A breathing medication?
I only have one dose left.
You may have noticed that no doctors work on Saturday anymore.
At least, none around here.
I called the office, it rang for about 5 minutes, then disconnected.
I ended up calling my sister in law who is a nurse-practitioner. She told me to call the doctor’s office again–as someone has to be on call.
I called back and someone answered this time. She said she would contact the Dr. on call and they would call me back. I gave her my number and the number for Walgreens.
Now I can’t do the errands I wanted to do–have to wait for the call.
I know, I know if I got a cell phone I could do both.
Maybe I’ll invest in a dumb phone (just for calls).
Let’s see what the rest of the day will bring.
I hope it’s good. It’s got to be better than this morning.
