At counsel (6 yo + grandma)
6yo: *sees antibiotics* oh no not this again! Why did Dr P send that? I don’t wanna take medicine! *looks at me* Do you take medicine? 🥺
Me: I do, especially if it helps me feel better
6yo: ….well ok I guess I’ll take it then

Pt (female): hi I was wondering if my doctor sent in an Rx for fluconazole for me?
Me: let me double check
Pt: she should have sent it last week when I asked her to. I told her if I even look at an antibiotic, things get a little sourdough-y down there
😶😶😶
☎️
Pt: hi did my dr send on my norco?
Me: yes but it looks like I can’t fill it until tomorrow (3/29)
Pt: well I filled it on the 28th last month so it’s due now!!
Me: there were only 28 days in February so we will fill it tomorrow when it’s due
*at counsel*
Me: here is your new dose of carvedilol
Pt: yeah those carvedilol tabs are tiny. I once dropped one of my old ones between my counter and my fridge but couldn’t get it so I left it there. A few days later I found a dead mouse and the tablet was nowhere to be seen!
In store
Pt: hi I have this cough and was hoping to get a recommendation. I don’t have congestion but when I take a deep breath it rattles and I cough
*proceeds to demonstrate multiple times and cough all over me without covering their mouth*
I’m also sick now… I hate it here
