...and in which case I should probably come up with an alternate post title, in case this doesn't turn out to be a series. How about, The Doctor Fax Follies, Part 2. Wait. Part 2 would make it a series. Christ, this blog stuff can be harder than you think sometimes.
Anyway, you ever send a fax to a doctors office to clarify something, I dunno, some handwriting issue let's say, and you clearly state why you're sending said fax, like you circle the name of the med that looks like it could be one of three things because Dr. Dumbass' handwriting looks a little like Arabic written in the dark after a 2 week crystal meth binge, and you write "PLEASE CLARIFY NAME OF MED" right next to the part you circled in what is unmistakably English, and what you get back is something like, a new set of directions?
When the directions weren't the part you couldn't read? You could read the directions just fine, and now they have changed. And you still don't know what the hell med was prescribed. Making the whole exercise worse than pointless.
Does this ever happen to anyone else? Because this kind of thing happens enough to me that I would be a little frightened if I were a member of the prescription taking public.
I'll try to come up with something else so I can make this a series. No promises though. I may not be able to take the pressure and might just end up spending tomorrow hiding under my bed.
