This is why you (a Senior?) should listen to
your Doctors instructions.
I went to my nearby CVS Pharmacy, straight to
the back, where
the Pharmacists' high counter is located.
I took out my little brown bottle, along with
a teaspoon, and set them
up on the counter.
The Pharmacist came over, smiled, and asked
if he could help me.
I said, "Yes! Could you please taste this for
me?
Seeing a senior citizen, the Pharmacist went
along.
He took the spoon, put a tiny bit of the
liquid on it, put it on
his tongue and swilled it around.
Then, with a stomach-churning look on his
face, he spat it out on
the floor and began coughing.
When he finally was finished, I looked him
right in the eye and
asked, now, does that taste sweet to you?"
The Pharmacist, shaking his head back and
forth with a venomous
look in his eyes yelled, "HELL NO!!!"
I said, "Oh, thank God! That's a real relief!
My doctor told
me to have a Pharmacist test my urine for
sugar!"
I can never go back to that CVS, but I really
don't care, because
they aren't very friendly there anymore!
