Nevermind

Oh good god. Ignore that question about the Social Distortion compilation. I just picked up my Protonix prescription. $55 for a 30 day supply.

cough choke

Looks like I'm not gonna be buying much of anything except what's absolutely necessary for the next month or two. Ouch.

You know, I think at this point I'd be freaking asking my doctor why exactly it is that they are not testing you to rule out something that might be curable with a course of antibiotics before putting you on a drug that cost half an arm monthly...


D.

You're much quicker about this sort of thing than I am. Perhaps I'll give a call this afternoon. I've just got way too much stuff going on right now. Ugh.

I've been wanting to change doctors lately, anyway...

Good heavens.

Jeebus. That's dumb.

I went poking on the web, and apparently the protonix web site is offering $30 rebates on your next prescription.

Secondly, is there a compelling reason why they're having you take this drug and not Prillosec? Since it's over the counter now it is A LOT cheaper ($25 for a month and a half supply). Just wondering...

Another good question. And another good reason to find a different damn doctor.
