A pharmacy you CAN'T rely on

Everything is good here. Rassie is feeling great. He helped weed eat the yard yesterday.  He wanted to cook out steaks but we couldn't get the grill lit.  We think the ignition switch is broken.

Anyways, on to the Pharmacy!  Do NOT use Wal-Mart pharmacy if you have a really important prescription. I can understand waiting a few days on an antibiotic or acid control or even have to start over with birth control. Something little like that. But when you need a script to help keep your white count down so that you don't end up back in the hospital, its not something to play around with.

Rassie got out of the hospital on Tuesday.  Dr. R had prescribed a 30 day supply of hydroxyurea.  Wal-Mart pharmacy claimed they only had a 3 day supply but their shipment would be in the next day. So Rassie took the partial.  We called back Wednesday. No shipment yet.   When we stopped by Thursday they told us they still had not gotten anymore in their shipment. But by some miracle they could give Rassie another 3 day supply.  We called Friday and the lady said it still didn't come in but would for sure be here Monday. If Rassie wanted to come in and get another 3 day partial just to feel safe he could!   That would mean 9 days worth of pills when they initially claimed they only had a 3 day supply!!! But we decided we would pick it up today, Saturday, because his supply will run out Sunday and it would put Rassie's mind at ease to have 3 more days worth.   We get there and they told us that they didn't have any and Rassie would have to wait until Monday.  Then the pharmacist said, "Oh, we did get the shipment in. I can fill the complete prescription, I just wanted to wait until Monday because we are so busy".   I was not happy. Nevertheless, she fill the script and we are good to go for the month.   We will not be using the Wal-Mart pharmacy for Rassie's prescriptions anymore.
