There was a column I got in one of my copies of the Funny Times (unfortunately, I gave it to my doctor) from a person like that, and all of the crazy miswrites she saw (I remember that one of them said the patient needed "Atop the Wall" which turned out to be Metropolol.)
Not that I'm much better. When I first got prescribed Bupophrion (generic Wellbutrin) I called up the doctor and said were they sure, since I misread the label as saying they had prescribed me Bufotenine (i.e. the stuff in toads that makes people who lick them hallucinate)
As I have mentioned I have also gotten Oxytocin (the "love hormone") confused with OxyContin (the painkiller) and laburnum (the flowering shrub in the garden) with laudanum (the opiate). Oh and I thought Ebola was E. bola ,and it was a bacterium related to E. coli, but more virulent.
