This is not my week. Today was my day to take my depo prevera SubQ. So I pull it out, try to follow the directions and then have problems when I go to push the plunger in. Medication ended up all over instead of in me.
Of course, it’s the Fourth of July and the doctor’s office is closed. Also, I’m leaving for Pittsburgh tomorrow. ARGH! And will be gone for two weeks.
So I call the manufacturer. They tell me to save everything but can’t give me any answers (trust me, I’ll call them tomorrow). The answer I want is that they will send me a new Depo Prevera so I’m not out that dose.
Next I call Medco, as the Depo Prevera number suggest they should refund it. I also want to make sure I won’t have any pharmacy problems.
Finally, I take a chance and call the doctor’s office. Hours are 7:30 am to 4:00 — that is good — in fact, I might go back to them to get injections as I can do that at 7:30.
So right now, the plan is to call the doctor’s office at 7:30 and see if they have Depo in stock. If not, I’ll have them call the Walgreens around the corner and order it, I’ll pick it up and let the nurse give it to me.
