Damn it at least let me get a good orgasm out of the deal.
Monday dr prescribed me several scrips, including a Zpack and a cough syrup that would knock me flat out at night. I dropped them off at Walmart and proceeded to spend an hour waiting without spending any money. When I get over there they tell me that they didn’t have the syrup and they weren’t able to contact my dr for followup. Whatever.
So tonight I go over to pick up the syrup (had to wait for payday to come to the rescue) and went through the thing of having a pharmicist counsel me. As I start to walk off with it I notice the dollar amount. $61.43. So I went back, stood in line again and asked them to make sure it was run through with my insurance. That was after insurance!!! Because of the way my insurance does deductibles, I was paying for almost all of the scrip. Now I know I had gotten spoiled with my old insurance where I didn’t have deductibles on scrips but I have a hard time with the idea that a cough syrup was over $75. I get that more designer drugs, ones doing something like curing cancer or AIDS with big development and big liability risks will be expensive but this is a damn cough syrup.
I decided I would get a tank of gas instead.
