Computer IT maintenance was being done when I was leaving so the system was down and I couldn't get ... my prescription. I was promised that it would be sent to my email address as as it was back up. I've received two survey and I reminder emails this morning so clearly you have my email, but no prescription yet. I guess I just need to call.
