Woman of a certain age but so glad I know

I would probably take the ones my new physician prescribed. So this past Monday I had my first appointment with my new PCP. I needed 2 major prescriptions filled, for BP and thyroid. Both should have gone to the major drug place that carries my ongoing medications and explained this to them. My neighborhood drug store only does the ones I get from time to time, not my routine meds. Tonight my neighborhood drug store called to let me know all my 5 new prescriptions were ready?? They included the BP med, Pro-Air which we never discussed anything about my needing and I have never taken, a steroid cream for Lord only knows what, an anti-inflammatory for again Lord only knows what for and Voltaran cream for, you guessed again, Lord only knows for what. My thyroid med was missing in action. Can you imagine a person who does not know exactly what meds they were supposed to get and take as opposed to a person who knew what was needed and did not get? That is scary!;
