So, they said that they didn't have a script for you but they'd already given your Rx to your mom too? There just aren't words for that. Well, not nice ones. Massive screw-up. Which would be less offensive if they copped to it.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That does suck, askye.
I like the screwup at my pharmacy much better. (they gave me at least twice as many vicadin as the dentist prescribed.)

Thrive to spite them
Well, the Seroquel I legitmately was out of.
I should not have had another refill of Lamictal, I get them filled appx the same time.
Mom called the pharmacist and explained what happened. Pharmacist told Mom "I can't tell if that was you or your daughter."
Mom said: EXACTLY!! I could have been a stranger.
Mom tried to give the medication back and they just let her take it. She could have been anyone with the same last name.
So Mom talked to the store manager (who wasn't the head manager) and she was nice and horrified about the mistake and said at the very least the cashier who gave Mom my meds should have asked to verify my birthdate, etc. And that they'll pull the tape and find out who it was and that the Head Manager will be talking to the cashier and the pharamacist.

(they gave me at least twice as many vicadin as the dentist prescribed.)This is a much better screwup.

The thing is, your mom didn't ask for your script. It was just next to hers I am guessing. It wasn't even a same last name thing, it was oops grabbed the wrong thing. That they let her take them after she brought it to their attention is criminal though. Or should be.

I like the screw up Perkins got.
Whoa. I have no prescriptions. Well, I have some refills left on shit I'm not taking (BP meds, BCPs, pre-natals), but I have no prescriptions! Dude, this makes me so happy. I hate having to remember to take pills, and the last year has been pill central for me.

I don't know what the difference is between prenatals and other vitamins. Is it something specifical to growing an (obviously adorable and lovable) little alien or just a supersized multi?
I loathe taking prescriptions but usually just the numbers vary. However, unlike Plei, the pill usually solves more health issues for me instead of creating them so it's just a ritual I am used to by now.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I'm betting it is.

Differing amounts of stuff. Less A, more folic acid, blah blah blah.

Well, except for the mini-pill moodies, they weren't *causing* health issues. I just suck at taking pills. You'd think, given that I've often had to take pills, that I'd have learned, but I still have NO time sense, and everything except the prenatals was time sensitive.

Me too, except for the part where as I was running out the door to work on Tuesday, I grabbed the pill bottle with the most pills in it, so I could take it with me for my afternoon dose. That should have been the anti-biotics bottle, but it wasn't.

Wait. This is why my doctor always wants to make sure I am taking folic acid, innit? The one who knows that I am getting none, on the pill (okay for other reasons, but he doesn't particularly know or care) and had her D(now)xH fixed. Hrmph. I just assumed that the multi that I occasionally think to take has it and said yes.
except for the mini-pill moodieI was thinking of the moodies mostly. I am randomly good at taking stuff on time. I try to find things that have some give in their timing. I work better with a range.
