Yep, i sure knew something was wrong when the bottle was kinda full looking, got home counted em, and holy sh*t, a nice prezzie,The script instructions were kinda complicated so i see how it could have happened-there was no number of pills on the script to dispence, only take 2 here, 2 there, 1 and half here and same at night. The poor girl must have had trouble working it out and rushed it.
Lets just say i had quite a few 5mg Vals at home after this:), what with the amount i already had at home. yes indeed.
Cheers
