My RX went to Germany!??!

Years ago, we had to switch to mail order prescriptions when our insurance changed. I was hesitant at first, but it's actually very convenient for maintenance prescriptions!

I received a notice earlier this month that my refill delivery was delayed. Eventually, USPS tracked it down:
How in the world did it end up on a military base in Frankfurt, Germany!?!?!

So glad the mistake was corrected and the pills were sent back to the U.S. 😆
