Small Joys — fixed it (I hope)

Day 207

What’s a small thing that bugs me? Fix it today

Been struggling to get a prescription filled with my gastro. Admittedly it’s been awhile since I’ve seen him. But I left three messages with his medical assistant over 8 days and they never called me back. One time, I spoke to a receptionist who “looked into it” and told me the prescription had been called in. It hadn’t.

Today I called the appointment coordinator and asked: do I need I need an appointment to get this medication renewed? They asked their superior and told me, yes. Now how difficult would it have been for someone to call me back and tell me that 7 days ago? Another week without heartburn meds, not cool. Good thing I have a mild case. Appointment Weds, and new ‘script then.

Anyway, I end the day happy I made progress on this annoying thing.

UPDATE: went to doctors appointment. Assholes kept me waiting more than an hour. Didn’t ask any questions or look at my throat. But called in prescription.

UPDATE: And guess what fuckers didn’t call in my prescription.
