It's Not Rocket Surgery

CPP: <aside> why are you using me as the setup person in this?

CP: <whispers> because I need a cold intro since no one else has heard of this. 

CPP: you're saying we are old?

CP: -er, old-er. 

CPP: Phine. What is the best migraine relief medication you have used that you can't get anymore?

CP: Wow. That's really out of left field. Let me think. Sprix. 

CPP: That was a good one. Why did you have me ask you about it?

CP: It's gone rogue, off the grid, escaped the tethers of reality. 

CPP: Do tell. 

CP: We were able to order it, briefly, over a decade ago. Then it became a special order from the manufacturer. 

CPP: And now?

CP: Now the prescriber has to order it online through the company. 

CPP: And the story phor today involves this, somehow?

CP: It does. 

UT: What the hell is this?

CP: Sprix! I haven't seen a prescription for this since Moby Dick was a minnow. 

UT: You're old. 

CP: Only in pharmacy years. I didn't think you could find this anymore. 

UT: You can't. I checked all suppliers. 

CP: Let's ask da google. hmmm, curious. 

UT: What have you found?

CP: It is only available online, through the manufacturer. I''ll call the office and let them know. 

Little Office Lady: What is your question?

CP: The doctor prescribed Sprix nasal spray. If they want the patient to have this, they have to go online and have the prescription sent to the company. 

LOL: Ok. Well I'll send them a message and see what he wants to do and call you back. 

CP: No. No "see". They have no other option. If he wants the patient to have it, they send it online. You don't need to involve me in this matter any further. I shall even ring the patient myself and provide them the same information. You two can hash it out between yourselves. 

LOL: Okay. Someone will get back to you. 

CP: I often wonder if we speak the same language. 

UT: People would be so much better if they weren't so people-y.
