5th degree?!?!?!

I tried to buy some needles from the pharmacy today and what the f*ck!!
One lady asked me what kinda insulin I'm taking, then I drew a blank and said there for personal use and she looks at me like I'm a junkie and said they don't have any I would want.
Then I went to another pharmacy and the girl gave me a box of 50 then some ass-hole comes up and asks what I'm using them for. I was drew a blank again then said there for school. So the a-hole goe's "Nope, come back with a better reason next time."
Why do these ppl want to make ya feel like a dushbag?!?!?!
guess it's getpinz.com for me.
Sorry for rantin, just pissed!!! Now I can't start on monday, have to wait another f*ckin week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Next time tell him it's for his daughter's smack. She blows you if you throw in the pins.

i have already told yall this.....


stare directly in their eyes and with the most honest, straight face say 'my goats got a nasty virus'.....

one more question, do all needles fit the same syringe? I'm gonna use B-D 23g 1" and just wondering if I order more needles if they will fit. Getpinz doesn't put what kinda needles they are

But I live on a cattle farm?

If you are asking for syringes/needles that you would need for gear, say you are anemic and do B12 shots. If you are old enough to look like you need HRT, then just say you do HRT and your doctor lets you do your own shots. If you need insulin syringes and needles for HCG, HGH or Insulin just say you are a diabetic. Better to be prepared with a story than have nothing to say when they give you the 5th degree.

And of course there is always ordering that stuff online......

Ask them if they have ever heard of HIPPA , it's the national policy on medical privacy, you don't have to tell them sh*t. If it's legal for you to buy them in your state it's none of their business. Just make sure you pay cash.

Syringes are illegal in Cali without a scrip, so it's gpz for me.

do you know how to find if it's legal in your state or not?
I would think it is here, it's one of the least populated states

They have to sell you slin pins everywhere. Call a walgreens or better yet a Sam's club ask for the pharmacy, tell them you are visiting from out of state and ask.

hmmm ... ok, not sure if I would throw "HIPPA" out at the pharm. or not. I wouldn't suggest it.

Luckily for me I'm a surgical sales rep and always in scrubs at the hospitals so I get my pinz from the hospital pharm with no questions asked .. they just assume I'm a doctor :dg: If asked I would say my office is out of pinz for cortizone injections. Otherwise gpz.com is the best source. Cheap, fast and dependable.

Why not? It applies to them. My wife is a therapist and she has to go to great lengths to protect her clients' privacy. I'd bet they back right down when you mention HIPPA (pronounced HIP-PA) especially since you can sue them.

maybe I should go back to that a-hole and say I got a reson now, hippa!!

not to turn this into a big debate about HIPPA (I deal with it all the time) but some state laws consider needles prohibited paraphernalia in the state.

Six states in the country still require a person to have a prescription to buy a syringe. A bill was introduced to the state assembly May 19 2004. If passed, it would change the current law to allow pharmacies in the states to sell a hypodermic syringe or needle to any person, instead of only to people over 18 with a prescription.

HIPPA is designed to protect the patients privacy, the argument can be made that the pharm is acting as an agent by providing needed medical equipment. Like I said I'm a rep and I have access to all patient info because I act as an agent of the hospital by providing surgical implants.

BOTTOM LINE ... use getpinz

Not any state...I'm a pharmacist in Illinois & you have to have an Rx or
at least give me a really good story & I'll help you for at least trying. :)

By the way, I'm at work right now getting paid to type on AR!!

Hey man ... I thought IL just signed into law that you did not need an Rx for pinz. I know I read that in the Chicago Trib. Did I misunderstand?

here's the link and the highlights

http://www.aegis.com/news/ct/2003/CT030709.html

"Law OKs syringe sales without prescription

Chicago Tribune - July 27, 2003
Christi Parsons, Tribune staff reporter


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SPRINGFIELD -- Sterile syringes will now be available without a prescription to buyers ages 18 and older under a new measure signed into law by Gov. Rod Blagojevich on Friday. .............."

I thought of this but I don't know I would do it. Go where no one knows you go through the routine, when they start getting nosy and rude and shutting you down scream really loud "I have AIDS it's for my medication, are you happy now!?" so people all over the store can hear you. Not to offend AIDS patients. Maybe they would feel like the nosy jerks that they are.

It's legal in my state but I still have ignorant or nosy techs and actually one pharmacist that denied me. The pharmacy manager called me back and apologized, I guess Barney Fife went to tell her boss and he was like "what the **** are you doing?"

My bad!!! I guess I do remember that, but since I'm in a small town w/ very
little AIDS problem I just put it to the back of my mind. So, I guess if you
go into any Il pharmacy & say you have AIDS & you want some needles or
else you'll bleed on them you will be successful!!!
