Go on with your bad self, grammy.<br /><br />A good 90% of my friends have tattoos, most of them multiple (I have two) and we've commented that when we all start going into nursing homes, it's going to be super fun. We can sit around and try to guess what we actually had tattooed on there. It'd be like pictionary. "Is it a sun? How about a sailboat? Maybe a zodiac sign? C'mon.

But I know that happens all the time. My dad, at 63, with many medical issues yet still works 12+ hours per day, calls me when he has a problem with certain things. He had a pharmacy issue today and called me to handle it. After an hour on the phone with the insurance company it turned out to be a pharmacy error. I called the pharmacy back, explained what I found out, and sure enough, their fault. The RPH told me right away they were 100% in the wrong and that they didn't do what they were supposed to on 1/1/11 and that is why we had a problem today. Because of our trouble my dad did receive a $25 GC when he came back the 2nd time for his script. Kudos to any RPH that takes full responsibility for their mistake and does his/her best to make the customer happy (I still won't fill my own scripts there or another big box {the one that is on every corner}). Thanks for all the laughs of late Dr. Grumpy; they seem to always come at just the right time. Anyone know of any GI or IM Doc Blogs like this one?<br /><br />PS.
