I understand the feeling, but I guess I've gotten over it out of necessity. Also, I just have noticed over the years signs of how many other people are taking all kinds of meds!
With the new HIPAA privacy rules, by the way, pharmacists and their workers are supposed to take a lot of precautions to be very discreet, like not saying the names of meds out loud, etc.
I do think it is important, however, to find a pharmacy you are really comfortable in and with, and make it your regular pharmacy if you can. Also, if it helps you, see if your plan has mail order meds--if this helps you feel more comfortable.
