Who would ship off a bottle of an injectable medication and not include any needles? (Don't bother answering.)

It was weird enough last month, when I got a 30-day supply with 25 needles. They had to break open a ten-pack to avoid giving me 30 needles, so it was deliberate. I figured it wasn't worth the hassle to ask for the other five, especially at their shipping prices, so I reused five needles once each. That's not as awful as it sounds, but I'd still prefer not to do it. Now I guess I'm supposed to snort this liquid, or perhaps use it as a suppository. Or maybe they figure by now I have a permanent little hole bored in my skin and I can just pour it in. Twenty-five needles must be the industry standard for "number required for the average patient to bore a permanent little hole in the skin for all future medicine doses."

Thank goodness my cat is diabetic. (That's kind of a weird sentence, isn't it?) I'll use some of hers.

Sheesh.

Eh, who knows? Because last month was weird too and because it changed from last month to this month, I'm just betting stupidity. But then, that's my default bet with both pharmacies and government.
