waiting

Ok, so two weeks after appointment, still waiting to hear back about getting a prescription. I got told on the day (Wednesday) that I might hear something over the next couple days, and if not to call on Monday. Thursday, Friday, I hear nothing. Monday, I don’t call, still waiting. Tuesday I call, leave a message. Wednesday I call again, reception guy tell me yes he got my message yesterday and passed it on. Ok, great. Back to waiting I guess. Another week passes… Wednesday again I call, and this time I get told that the approval has been sent, or requested, or something. So that’s good news I guess. Things are happening. No idea when I might actually be able to come in and pick up a script. I don’t want to hassle them, but I’d like to know what’s going on. I want to seem proactive, not like a junkie, gimme my drugs man! I’ve been asked to take on a new role at work, on a temporary basis. It’s a really good opportunity to prove myself, and learn some new skills and show them what I can be capable of. But I’ll need to be at my best to do well. Not disorganised and scruffy and underslept. I’ll need to be as productive as possible. I don’t want all this red tape standing in the way of that. I hope they call me back soon, because you know what will happen next? I’ll get to the pharmacy and they’ll say, oh, we don’t keep that in stock… and then I’ll have to wait another week. Ten bucks says that’s what happens.
