I resemble those remarks! And I AM allergic to the water! Tap water that is, the flouride and the chlorine.. especially when they do the quarterly dump of purification (bleach?) into the system. I even have a filter on my shower head!
Be thankful you have a pharmacist that cares. My pharmacist is a real "friend" in that sense, to me.

Allergies are anything but fun, but the lighthearted remarks are appreciated, to me.
