My doctor diagnosed me with a b-12 deficiency. Something easily fixed with a shot she prescribed.
The pharmacist looked at me like I was a drug addict when I asked where the needle for the injection was when I picked up the scrip. "Just have the doctor do it".
Fee for randomly showing up to my doctor to get the shot? $0
Fee for getting the shot done when I was actively at a scheduled check up? $130
I take an oral supplement instead now that's not quite as effective.
Go to your local co-op or tractor supply, or order online. We always have hundreds stocked here on the farm for the animals, and they're cheaper and literally the same thing as the stuff used for humans, usually from the same companies and factories.
Needles are legal over the counter in my state as they should be. But I’ve had so many pharmacists pull shit about me buying them. Like first of all motherfucker you just saw me buy a vial of estradiol, but even if you didn’t I know I’d rather addicts shoot up with new needles on a purely selfish basis of it prevents disease from spreading. Anyways I buy online in bulk from a medical supplier now, it’s just easier
Yeah, it was absolutely crazy to me. I know several diabetics who would be given a needle for their insulin... But they acted like I was going to shoot up some smack after they literally handed me B-12 to inject.
