How do I unblock a short code which I cannot see? 

My Pharmacy sends text messages regarding refills but suddenly in the last couple of weeks I am not receiving those but do receive from other short codes. 
I called the pharmacy's tech support and they show that messages are transmitting but sadly they are not getting to me.
 I called my cell phone provider and they have no way to unblock short codes because they can't see those. 
Finally the suggestion was it has to be a setting on my phone. I'm hoping someone out there can help me with this. Thank you in advance

So it used to be that premium cell phone plans Came with shortcode messaging
But i'm on metro by t mobile Which is not a premium So how we gotta round it is I bought an intexting. It cost me like ten bucks. But if you have the option to have verification done by calling you over the phone, it's a lot safer
