This pharmacist told my nurse I could pick up my pain medication a day earlier,which is today 6-14-17 that he insisted telling me I cannot pick it up for 2 days ,He stated because it is his store he can do what he wants ! he lied to her of our talk . His family are very old in this town and well known . so of course folks will believe him , he has always been a spoiled brat , age now of 48 , yes that is beside the point .Others have had similar complaints of Jody’s professionalism .
This is another good example of why pts need to audio/video recording of all interactions with healthcare providers – or in this case a healthcare denier –
IMO.. if a healthcare provider will intentionally throw a pt into cold turkey withdrawal… there is little reason to believe that they are not also capable of lying to cover their ass about what happened or was said/promised.
In today’s environment… the healthcare provider will probably pull the “addict card” to support and defend the lie they are putting forth as to what happened… and the pt won’t stand a chance of prevailing.
While this Pharmacist is correct that “it is his pharmacy“… but his license and the license to operate a pharmacy belongs to the state and the state can take both of them away, if it is found that the way that he operates could harm the health and safety of the general public

This is another example of the finger pointing and blame game which has taken grip of our country. Chronic pain patients are collateral damage in a wreckless and unconscienable “war” waged on the neediest among us. As a chronic pain sufferer, I have been judged, labeled, force tapered from my meds, discarded and thrown under the bus by my doctor of 16 years. Unfortunately, I don’t hold much hope for the future, as this “war on opioids” appears to be gaining momentum.
