Pharmaceuticals Wanted

Well just a quick one. Firstly I would like to say hi to every one at the pharmacy....I miss the good times, the coffee, the chocolates and other treats. Its all like a dream to me now:) Has anyone taken any fantabulous holidays this summer???

So, my sister, she has a problem. It started a few weeks ago with a small bump on her finger. It has gotten bigger and bigger and now it is this huge growth that has taken over the side of her finger. She saw a friend who is a doctor, he doesn't know what it is, it is not like anything I have seen...very strange. So the doctor has prescribed cloxicillan, I am not sure what it will do, because it doesn't look to be an infection, more of a growth.
Then a couple days ago, she got a few bumps on her hands, now they are many, I with my vast knowledge as a pharmacy technician have decided it is scabies. Problem, we have nothing to treat it. So tomorrow, my mission, to see if they carry lindane or permethrin in the country. I am sure they must, why wouldn't they??? Here's hoping. I mean, last time I was here, I went to the stationary store to buy a few things. The stationary store had no legal sized paper....crazy. Oh, and the store we shop at, they never have brown sugar. The silly thing is that they grow sugar cane here, (we grow it in our yard...I wish I new how to extract the sugar) but they import brown sugar from the US. So, if they have no lindane lotion or Kwellada, I will admitt, it won't be a huge surprise. Anyone know any home made treatements???
Bye from Buggy in Paynesville.
PS. Bill Clinton was in the country yesterday, he is promoting AIDS awareness....good for Bill. He didn't have as much security as Kofi...
