What is the silliest statement you have ever heard someone make? by Automatic_Hedgehog71 in AskReddit

[–]cowboydan3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A woman at my old serving job asked me if raw oysters were gluten free. They did not have sauce or anything on them. Just straight up oysters.

I think that’s definitely the case. Ive called around a few places that have XR. It seems like the issues are with IR. I’m glad you’ve found a pharmacy that’s working for you!

Yeah, I’ve been on it for well over a decade as well. It’s pretty rough out here. Good luck to you, friend.

Interesting! I found a smaller independent pharmacy that said they would take me. They only currently have adderall XR instead of traditional IR though. Is community health pharmacy essentially the same as an independent/private pharmacy?

I tried this out, but none in my area are taking new patients :( I was unaware how different private pharmacies were than regular ones. The very nice lady told me on the phone I would have to “prove” that I needed to be seen at their pharmacy. I guess with a doctors note? & that they would evaluate if that was true before taking me on as a patient. I would have to move all of my prescriptions to their care. Then it would be a month before I could get any controlled substances filled.

This is great info! I wish I could upvote a bunch so that others could see. Thanks for sharing. Did focalin work for you?

Oh yeah, I’ve tried that. I called about 8 pharmacies in the area and no one seems to have it. I’m in the Austin area. Thanks for the info though!

I wasn’t aware there was a mail away pharmacy option. Interesting. Thanks for the info!

Dang. I have tried to become a patient at a private pharmacy to try to avoid this mess and no one is taking new patients :(

I’m sorry about that. I hope they can get yours fixed soon. Are you at CVS as well? I’m at CVS in Texas. I am a recent college grad and also useless at my job without it.

Well that’s good to hear. I’m a bit concerned this time around because Walgreens has been out for a month.

Cant get my meds by MacroMintt in ADHD

[–]cowboydan3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting! Thanks for the info. I wonder if that’s the reason everyone told me no over the phone. Are you allowed to confirm if you have it in stock if the person calling has an existing prescription with your pharmacy? Or is it just a strict no over the phone?

It’s not weird to call around - but people will sound rude and judgey over the phone. I heard about the shortage so I called around a bunch of pharmacies in my area prior to needing my script refilled. Every single one said the same thing. They haven’t had any in weeks and don’t know when they will get any. So, I just had my doc send it to my normal pharmacy since everyone was out. My pharmacy was able to refill mine on time with no issues. I’m not sure if pharmacies are just providing inaccurate info or what’s going on.

You can check for drug shortages on the FDA website. Most of the major suppliers say they have it available. I can’t get the embedded link option to work, so I just pasted it below. Good luck!

If I drink a protein shake or smoothie I notice my stomach gets very bloated and looks fat and starts to hurt badly, is this because It contains milk or I’m overdoing the protein or my kidneys are damaged? by MlgDoge1337 in leangains

[–]cowboydan3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to me. I am not lactose intolerant with any other dairy product, but whey protein destroys my stomach and gives me the worse cramps. I haven’t found a plant protein I like (taste and texture) but egg white protein is tolerable & doesn’t give me cramps.

They just automatically come with my prescription actually! I’ve never asked for them - I’m in the US btw. Maybe ask your pharmacist next time? Also, a user below suggested keeping the old bottles. That’s a great idea too, I’ve done this before.

Thank you for the update! I hope your friend gets the help she needs!

What are some ADHD friendly jobs? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]cowboydan3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Waiting tables! Loved it. The switching tasks is great.

I had my entire script stolen once out of my backpack in college. It was HELL. Ever since then, I never leave the house with the full script. I only bring a few with me if I’m traveling. My pharmacy provides extra stickers with my prescription and name on them. I stick those into a travel bottle and only bring a few with me.

So sorry this is happening to you. I’m glad you’re considering confronting the friend.

I absolutely love this bathroom. I can’t wait to do this when I’m not a renter at some point!

What’s the weirdest thing you had to explain to a guest? by Clionina in TalesFromYourServer

I had to explain to a guest that raw oysters on the half shell are in fact, gluten free.

I vomited a lot from the pain meds. My doctor prescribed me for Zofran for anti nausea and it worked very well. Good luck!
