Also, breathlessly/angrily declaring "IDON'TWANTANEXAM" as soon as I pick up the phone is not conducive to getting your request passed along to the doctor.
"I think he's got a UTI - can I get some of that antibiotic stuff like last time?" (last time = 3 years ago)
"OMG, I'm TOTALLY out of Novox, I need a refill NOW!" (last exam - '06, last bloodwork = hahahhahah. Also, how did you manage to stretch 14 tablets over 2 years if you're giving it every day?)
"His allergies are getting really bad again, he's all red and scabby...last time y'all made me buy like 3 medications, I don't need that antihistamine stuff or antibiotics, just gimme those little white pills." (little white pills = prednisone)
"More Ace, please"
Me: "Ma'am, you just got a refill of 30 tablets a week ago...and we haven't had any thunderstorms..."
"Yeah, but he barks alot."
