Day 747 - James "The Music Man" 🎶 & Prescription Refills
Monday, January 16th, 2023
James slept in pretty late. Dad was finally able to pick up some prescriptions for Mom after a lot of help from our friend and pharmacist, Uncle DP. We tried to keep today a pretty lazy day with James just practicing his music. We cancelled PT for tomorrow.
Mom had to follow up on James' prevacid order. She submitted it on Thursday by calling the Orlando compounding Pharmacy and submittting the refill through their automated system. Turns out that when she followed up that they had never received the order. We were pretty much out of the medication at this point. They were nice enough to next day the order and we would receive it tomorrow. Normally it takes a full day to make because it is compounded. So when ordered on a Thursday you would expect it to arrive on Monday. We are thankful that James is only on a few medications that need to be ordered. Even when we had nurses they weren't involved at all and reordering medications or letting mom know when something was running low. Currently the only medications that we need to stay on top of are Prevacid that we receive in the mail, Pulmicort and Albuterol that we refill through CVS in store, and Tobramycin which is filled through specialty Pharmacy by mail. His multivitamin is over the counter. This means that we only need to deal with two doctors refills and most of the time they give us about 6 months supply.
