    First its not a good idea to piggyback your question on someone else's. This can lead to confusion. You should start a new thread. So I've moved your question to its own thread.

    How do you know the info from this store was used?

    How did she get the info? From the Pharmacy? From (somehow) your husband? From his employer?
