At this point he had drawn the attention of most of the people waiting in line for their turn.
When I told him that it was the right medication, he asked me, right in front of the line of people, if I was having a sex change!
I told him, calmly and with as much dignity as I could scrape up off the floor, that I wasn't having a sex change and that, thanks to a medical condition, I probably had more testosterone in my blood than he had in his. He turned an impressive shade of deep crimson and, if my wish comes true, his penis will have fallen off by now.
I also sent a howler of a complaint letter to the store manager and changed to another pharmacy. | I'm sorry that happened to you! That pharmacist sounds like a prick and I'm glad you gave him a piece of your mind!
Sadly all you really can do is write a letter and change pharamcies because anything more would just turn into a headache.
Don't these people in the medical field know anything about privacy rights? They aren't to ask such questions like that and in front of other customers...I hope he was fired.
