Sometimes we Seniors don't Understand Medical Directions

I went to my nearby Shoppers Drug Mart Pharmacy at the back, where the Pharmacists' high counter is located.
I took out my little brown bottle and a teaspoon, and set them up on the counter.
The Pharmacist came over, smiled, and asked if he could help me. I said, "Yes! Could you please taste this for me?
Seeing a senior citizen, the Pharmacist went along.
He took the spoon, put a tiny bit of the liquid on it, put it on his tongue and swilled it around.
Then, with a stomach-churning look on his face, he spat it out on the floor and began coughing.
When he was finally finished, I looked him right in the eye and asked, “Now, does that taste sweet to you?"
The Pharmacist, shaking his head back and forth with a venomous look in his eyes yelled, "HELL NO!!!"
I said, "Oh, thank God! That's a real relief! My doctor told me to have a Pharmacist test my urine for sugar!"
I am not allowed to go back to that store, but I really don't care, because they aren't very friendly there anymore

They told me to take two pills every three hours. Or was it three pills every two hours. I don't hear so good any more.
