Well the first three months (June, July & Aug) went well. I had my Dr's appointment and my pharmacy was sent a new prescription. In Sept, I was in Mississippi and needed a refill. There was a Walmart with a pharmacy just 2 miles from the hotel. So I called them and they helped me transfer my prescription to this MS store. They filled my prescription and everything was fine.
In the beginning of Oct, I bought my monthly prescription. I noticed the bill was low but did not realize that instead of 60 tablets of Spironolatone, they sold me only 13 tablets. So I called them and they realized I was 47 tablets short. When I went to pick them up, they only could sell me 34 because I had already bought 13 when I came back from MS and 13 in the beginning of Oct. My prescription was only 60 per month. So 60-13-13 = 34. WTF!
Then they told me I had no more refills. I was upset, but unlike my pre-HRT days, I did not cause a scene. I guess I am changing. I remained calm and left.
From my car, I called my Dr's office and they told me they would check on it. The office called me back a few hours later and said WalMart had made a mistake because they were referring to the old prescription and not the new September prescription. So I can buy the extra 13 pills and I have two more refills (Nov & Dec).
Maybe acting like a lady does have its perks.
I have a Dr's appointment at the end of November. So I will get a new prescription for December. Hopefully, it will be under a six month cycle, if my November blood work is good.
I am moving my prescription to Sams Club. It might not be any better, but it will be less expensive.
