the psychiatrist ......... yeah I wonder , he knew i had breast cancer it was on my referral it used to be " Physician heal thyself now the paitient has to do it "
i was going through hell up to tday coming down off the last med to take this new one sheesh0 -
I am heading for 70 and more and more I am querying the prescriptions my GP writes - and he is not a happy camper when I return the prescription saying I am no taking it because "..........".
These GPs only prescribe what they know or are paid by the chemical companies to hand out ... the pharmacists know a bit more, or go straight to the website of the chemical company and read the Consumer/Patient information.
It is our body and we have to be comfortable with what we shove into it ....1 -
It also pays to have your meds 'audited' by the local pharmacist as well - with a list of your 'conditions' ..... quite a few do not work well together when you get a new condition!

I think I’ve said it before on here but you definitely need to be your own advocate4
