(67,104 posts)there for drugs. He was really pissed, I mean really pissed, before any tests, anything, they tell him they will not give him any pain medication at all. He was brought in via ambulance with incredibly severe pain. So, they did their tests and all, and it came back he had a severely ruptured disc pressing/wedged on his spinal nerves giving him incredible pain, plus more problems with his spine. Finally, they gave him a massive dose of medication to stop the pain.
What pisses one off is the blind accusation or implication you are trying to get drugs. That, is a real pisser.
This society is so F'ed in so many ways it's difficult to even count ...
I recently went to another pharmacy, had prescriptions in the same chain, and they would not fill my blood pressure medication because it needed authorization from my out of state doctor. I can't believe the bullshit I went through to get my BP medication I've been taking for 33 years. They failed to contact the doctor and then questioned the authenticity of the doctor even though I had given to them the damn bottle from the other pharmacy in the SAME chain. I did a search on the pharmacist's name, turns out he's a real control freak asshole, I found a review about him on the internet. I just can't believe that we, as a society, now let pharmacy techs, pharmacists and insurance companies override doctors decisions and course of treatment.
The more I watch the progress of the US over the years sound judgment and logical sense is being replaced with nonsensical idiotic decisions by people who should never be give that authority.
Maybe you ran into an asshole too.
