Default Anyone familiar with HIPAA?

So I went to a new pharmacy by my house today to pick up some insulin syringes and pen needles. Anyway, I've already transferred my scripts over to this place but I was there to pick these up without insurance coverage and was paying cash. The lady walks me out of the pharmacy with syringes in hand and plops them down at the front store register in front of a ton of people.

Now I personally know I'm not a heroin user, but other people don't know that. It was super embarrassing. I've had type 1 for nearly 20 years now but that stigma never goes away. My question is...was this a breach of HIPAA in anyway? I'm not even sure, considering it wasn't covered by insurance.
