A St. Charles woman is left with questions after Walgreens wouldn't fulfill her prescription after a painful surgery.
Joy Linn had knee surgery the day before Thanksgiving.
She tells KCCI all was going well with her recovery until she ran out of her prescription last Friday.
She tried to get it filled at the Walgreens in West Des Moines located near 22nd Street and Westown Parkway when she was told the pharmacy was closed.
Linn says dealing with the pain without medication was traumatizing, she now just wants answers.
"I could not speak or walk or move without excruciating pain," Linn said.
KCCI reached out to Walgreens to learn more about why Linn was not able to fill her prescription.
The company did not immediately respond.
After KCCI interviewed Linn, she shared she was finally able to get her prescription filled.
