My Pharmacy Found an Alternative Courier That Can Ship Medication from Canada to the U.S. During Canada Post Strike

This has honestly been one of the toughest years for anyone who depends on getting their medication from Canada. First, the new tariff changes caused most Canadian pharmacies to start passing extra costs back to patients in the U.S. Then the Canada Post strike hit (again), and many pharmacies completely stopped shipping.

After a few stressful days of searching and calling around, I finally found a pharmacy that’s still able to ship to the U.S.and isn’t adding any tariff surcharge. They told me they’ve arranged an alternative courier to handle U.S. deliveries, and shipments are going out on their regular schedule.

I wanted to share this in case anyone else is struggling to get their prescriptions filled right now. I’m not sure if it’s okay to name the pharmacy here, but if you’re having trouble finding one that’s still shipping, I am happy to share what worked for me. They are a pharmacy in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Difference between Wellness Exams and Primary Care Visits?

I haven’t been do a doctor in at least 10 years and I figured I should get myself checked out. I’m looking through my insurance website and they have two services I was unsure of.

*Prevantative Care - Wellness Exams

*Provider Visits - Primary Care Provider In-Person Visit

Are these the same thing? Can a primary care visit perform the same checks as a wellness exam?

Should I apply for a PCT position as someone who has no healthcare experience?

I am in school doing prerequisites to apply to a nuclear medicine program. I will be taking 5 classes starting in January, ends in late December. At first I wanted to try Monitor technician, but the course is too expensive so I can’t afford it right now. I would love to apply to imaging facilities, but I really need something that is at night and able to work 3 days out of the week so I can focus on classes. I saw that I don’t need a certification to become a pct where I live and thought I could try it out to get my foot in the door, but is it beneficial to me since it’s a different ball field from what I want to do as a career? If anything I thought about finding a PRN job, but I think that is for someone with experience. Do I have the choice of picking what floor I want to work on? What would you say is the best unit/floor to work on? What is your day to day like? 100% honesty.
