Has anyone gotten the ' you must be on the FBI most wanted list' look

[RobynD]

This is a good thread. I have rarely had any of those looks but the first time i filled my prescription there was an older German lady as pharmacist and she gave a bit of the same lecture. I was presenting pretty feminine too or at least feminine for me, i had makeup on.

The 2nd time i filled both meds together i had a muslim lady pharmacist, middle eastern and wore a headscarf. She was funny and goes " i wanted to double check these because of your name " I smiled at her - and said "i'm transitioning, sorry i am being confusing " she replied " oh no not at all, just making sure and i think you make a cute woman or do you say woman-man? " There was a line, so i did not really want to spend the time to educate her, but i said " woman and thank you " with a big smile.

I just love to imagine their accents.. I love listening to accents lol they are sometimes funny and amusing. I can speak with a French, Russian, British, a little Indian, Spanish, I try Portuguese, and of course my accent- American. But I love to study didn't cultures, etc.

It's not that.  It's just it's a very small local pharmacy.

Once I finally get a E-script I will be in the same thing - ALL the pharmacists know me.  Well... for those presenting male E is for prostate cancer.  I hope that settles it...

I'm not sure that story sells if you pick up estrogen+progesterone+anti-androgen all at the same time each month.  :-)

I do remember my first script being filled.

The pharmacist warned me that I would develop breasts and lose 'male' function. I just said, Oh god I hope so.

Nowadays he flirts with me and shows me pics of his kids.

Hi Cindy
You are to funny! I would have said the same thing! You go Girl.

Progesterone -- no, that would sink the story
Anti-Androgen -- not so much - reducing T is vital for prostate cancer and I have already been on proscar for some time.

The info that comes with the Spiro when you fill it is all about reducing blood pressure and the prostate thing.

Hi all

Not that I know of as was working there for years! I have not seen anyone of us on the most wanted list. LOL

Oh the web we weave...

Yes, prostate problems.
And high blood pressure...

And when your chest starts growing you can tell the pharmacists  that its just because you're pregnant     OOO, and you can say the progesterone is to relieve your symptoms of menopause! Now we just need to involve your evil twin and Henrique, the sexy latin gardener, and we have the makings of a good soap opera!!

And the longer hair each month is just a rare side effect of high blood pressure pushing the hair out from the inside.

I didn't have any trouble getting mine filled at Walmart.  Of course since I work there and completely out the lady just asked if I had any questions.

Actually, my script for Spiro is from a Cardiologist to act as a potassium sparing diuretic.  His position is that it is good for the heart and that it works with other drugs in a beneficial way.

Who told you about Henrique?  Oh, the shame, the secret is out...

[stephaniec]

who's Henrique

[ErinWDK]

who's Henrique

Henrique is the fictitious sexy latin gardener.  I felt that my chain was being pulled a bit; and me being me, I pulled back...

In case it is not obvious -- I am a bit nutso...

Last time I got my meds, the young pharmacy tech was acting very strange, and I wondered how they got the job with such poor customer service skills.

When I got home, my roommate said something about my neck... I had a laser session before picking up my meds, and the laser tech ended up burning (full blast) a part of my neck that had never had been treated before. I had red circles all over my neck, and looked really, really weird/scary.

I'm very glad my roommate said something, because I had planned on going out with friends that night.

^Besides that episode, no problems. For good or worse, I tend to carry myself in a way that people/strangers already know that I don't want to hear their opinions, and I think this keeps the peanut gallery subdued.
