The man went to get his script filled from a different chemist and he happened to have the last box with him (empty because he'd already taken that months worth) because he wanted to point out that he didn't wanted these ones because the pills were too big.

The lady said "wait that box is not on this script but I'll get the pharmacist". The pharmacist then told him that these are the wrong blood pressure tablets and that they are 8ร— the dosage (he is on the lightest dosage). She took photos and escalated the complaint.

Now the original chemist has contacted him apologising profusely and wants him to come in for a check up. He wants to know what he can get for free because they tried to kill him.

I've said this before the man is a machine.

Has he been feeling dizzy or anything like that lately? That is alarming. Maybe you can get a big box of jellybeans.

[โ€“] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No. No dizzy. No fainting. Maybe a bit more tired than usual but that's cos he's actually working more these days.

Fuck yeah it's alarming considering he drives machinery.

True but he averages 18000 steps a day but last 2 weeks he was doing around 25000 a day so it could be that too.

He got his shipment of chilli that he's been high on so even if there were anymore symptoms he wouldn't know it.

Firstly, what a fucking legend.

Secondly, I'd be wanting a fuck tonne of stuff for almost killing me.

They keep asking him if he's had any bad reactions and he says "no". I told him next time they ask, tell them you've been eating more icecream lately and you think your dick's grown a few more inches and see what they say.

He should start reeling off pregnancy symptoms

[โ€“] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yessss!!!!

I told him "tell them your wife plucked a long white hair that look like a cat whisker from your eyebrow today. Could that be a symptom?".
