   Fucking Kaiser Permanente. I have to go sit at their pharmacy for 45 minutes to get my prescriptions (because I'm not allowed to reorder them online or over the phone!) and they beep my phone saying ready, and put my name up on the "it's ready!" board. I wait 5-10 minute in line to get up front and... They're not actually ready yet. The notification and board lied.

   Motherfucker, I am 30 seconds from vomiting because you made me stand up that long, and THEY'RE NOT READY?!

     You'd think they'd know this given they're the ones that diagnosed me with this condition but apparently the people who know I'm very sick are different from the people who go "fuck 'em, make them stand for 10 minutes! Oh, they'll vomit and might die? Well they should have thought of that before they got a chronic illness!"

     At least I'm technically in a hospital so when I collapse and start vomiting blood they'll be able to get me to room quickly

     Though they'll probably then kick me out for not paying my insurance. I mean, I did pay my insurance, and that's highly illegal, but probably a lot of the other shit they're doing is illegal too.

     And then charge me 4000$ for having to clean my blood off the floor

     Sorry if I seem angrier and doomery than usual. I try to stay positive but I'm in a lot of pain and my hormones have been fucked up for about 3 months now.

     GUESS WHOSE FAULT THAT IS?

     They deactivated the needles and syringes prescription.
     Not my medicine that I need to inject weekly... Just the needles and syringes I need to inject it.

     What the fuck, guys?

     I've got spare needles so this isn't immediately a problem but it's just so weird. Why would my doctor cancel just the needles and syringes, while leaving my injectable medicine on the prescription list?

     I'd send them a message but I'm not allowed to send non-reply messages to my doctors because they don't think I have coverage

     @foone my sarcastic jokey defense mechanisms all crumble in the face of blatant injustice like this, I have nothing for you but “I am so sorry”. This fucking sucks and you have every right to be furious about it, if anything you seem positively sunny and gracious given the circumstances

     @JessTheUnstill I'll have to look into that, it sounds handy. Thanks!

     @foone
     The endless fuck ups with syringe and needle prescriptions is why I finally just gave up and started ordering mine online. Allegro and Medicalmonks have both been good enough, and I can get like a years supply for $20 or so.
