G'day, people.
I had to go out this morning to see my GP. I've been mucked around with my medications and had some very awkward paperwork to sort out with the doctor, to unravel a mess we didn't make. I came home (having lost the entire morning) and drafted a complaint letter for the pharmacist who caused the trouble. Then I hand-delivered it this afternoon. The challenge for me in this - the guy is a friend, I feel bad for dumping on him when life has just hit him between the eyes, but it was his employee who mucked me around. I had the various government bodies supervising this medication, treating me as if I was a drug-seeling addict. Even my GP was mistrusting me to begin with. I hated feeling like that, when I had not done anything wrong.
Tomorrow I hope to have a quieter day at home. I may hear from the pharmacist, I hope he understands. If nothing else, I hope it helps him set up a different procedure for handling problems. Step 1 - communicate with the patient!
OK, I'll get off my soapbox now.
Enjoy your Wednesday.
