Apparently I'm weird...and just sick really

Apparently 'I'm weird' is what I was told today. Today I had to visit a place I have not been in a while...the doctor. I went in because I had a sneak suspicion that I had a Sinus Infection. Had a great doctor's appointment, at a walk in clinic, and was in and out in less than an hour with meds for a Sinus Infection. Then I went to Walgreens to get my prescription filled. Waited for about 20 minutes and was called. Pharmacist wanted to talk to me. I new what this was about. I had also turned in my preventative antibiotic as well since seeing that it needed to be filled.


So the conversation went something like this:
Me:I was told you wanted to speak to me.
Pharmacist: Yes, you turned in two antibiotic prescriptions for two different doctors. Care to explain?
Me: Yes...my allergist/pulminologist put he on the low dose of an antibiotic to prevent me from being sick all winter long. Dr. N (today) put me on this prescription because I have a sinus infection.
P: Did Dr.N know you were on the other antibiotic?
Me: Yes and he said that was fine.
P: Well, you are just weird and this kind of treatment is too.
Me: (tried to be nice by then) Thanks...I'm trusting my doctors.


Seriously...I understand it may be a little different...but this is not very nice. I have had another Pharmacist question me when I was put on two prescriptions back at home, but calling me weird. What in the world. Glad P has some nice manners-HA.


So I may have written too soon on Thursday when I said that I have not had a Sinus Infection since August, but with everything going around I knew I was bound to catch a cold at least. I am hoping that this junk in my head goes away soon...since FINALS start Monday.


Have a wonderful weekend and hopefully no one will call you weird this weekend. Words may be words but they can be hurtful at times. Some people need to think before they speak.
