I assume we are all seniors ... this is why we should listen to our doctor's instructions very carefully.
I went to my nearby pharmacy, straight to the back, where the pharmacists' high counter is located.
I took out my little brown bottle, along with a teaspoon, and set them up on the counter.
The pharmacist came over, smiled, and asked if he could help me.
I said, "Yes! Could you please taste this for me?"
Seeing a senior citizen, the pharmacist went along. He took the spoon, put a tiny bit of the liquid on it, put it on his tongue and swilled it around. Then, with a stomach-churning look on his face, he spat it out on the floor and began coughing.
When he finally was finished, I looked him right in the eye and asked, "Now, does that taste sweet to you?"
The pharmacist, shaking his head back and forth with a venomous look in his eyes yelled, “No way!”
I said, "Oh, thank god! That's a real relief! My doctor told me to have a pharmacist test my urine for sugar!"
I can never go back to that pharmacy, but I really don't care, because they aren't very friendly there anymore ...
