Well folks, down B-low is the whole scoop of what my
main Dr. had to say after I had sent her the video about
the meds I'm on & what I found on the video on the effects
it has with them not mixing together, that has me worried.
So I told her thank you for the response & if we could get
a ultra sound of my pancreas to see if it's healing or what
it's doing since I've been out of the hosp almost 6 mons.
I will hopefully get a response sometime this week to see
what we're going to do, just so I will know & maybe ease
my stress level, cause She knows my health, so maybe
she will order a ultra sound or do something to check it.
The reason I want my pancreas checked is cause when
I get sick it gives me NO WARNINGS till it's too late &
that's what scares me the most, so yea wouldn't you ?
I'll be gone most of the day Wens cause hubby has a
Dr.'s appt at the VA hosp so I'll have to get back up with
you sometime Thursday if it's not raining too hard K?
Till then, take care, be sweet, have fun, & lots of faith.
(Good morning,
I understand your concerns. You've been through a lot!
Every medication (even over the counter medications)
have side effects that are possible. Depending on how
your body metabolizes the medicine, there can also be
potential interactions with other medications and foods.
Each time someone prescribes a medicine, we review
your entire list and meds and the potential risks. Unfortunately,
sometimes we have to accept low risk situations in order to
help improve your overall health. We only do this if we feel
the benefit to you is greater than the low risk.
These are the reasons that we monitor the situations with
lab work. This is how we can be sure the inside of your body
is responding and tolerating the medications well.
If you'd like to discuss any of this in more detail, I'm happy
to do so. Please, just make an appointment.)

Thank you, yeah I'm hoping we can do something
where I can get my stress level down & try not to
worry as much but it's hard not to when your body
don't give you no warning signs to go by.

@Happy2BeMe I hope so too, but I did see something
that LOOK like a appt but no time or date?? so I'm going
to call them & see if what I seen is a appt, or what the
heck it is. It's for April, but like I said no certain date or time?

Just what I expected her to say. That's the same bare bones explination of risk-benifit assment that doctors give to the general public. Good luck with getting your medical risks resolved.

Yea but when she says I don't want to see you till AUG
knowing the health issues I have & are prone to now it
makes me kinda stressed not knowing what's going on.

@kaylachan I know that, that's with any Dr
in any field of work, that's why I don't run to 1
every time I feel a tooth ach & don't have no teeth.

Yeah I know but, I had to find out for myself from what the dr
had to say about it since she is the 1 that has been seeing me
for the past 5-6 yrs, it's not a bad thing to do research & ask
questions about something your not sure about right?

You have to be careful about relying too heavily on the Internet and YouTube videos for medical advice. I am glad you were able to bring your concerns forth and the doctors/nurses were able to offer some additional information that is hopefully helpful to you.

@2ndchances24 At the end of the day, I don't care if the doctors like my questions. It's MY health and that's all that matters.

I don't rely on the internet a lot when it comes to
my health, but it helps to know what I'm trying to
learn about all this the best I can, cause this is the
1st time I've had to deal with this & never thought
I'd be 1 to have to worry about this.
That's why I asked the Dr about it but from what
she said, I just feel like she wasn't too happy I'm
questioning her medical attention on this. ooops.

I'm with you there, but at the same time
we have to have faith trust in some 1
that can do what needs to be done to
keep us alive for another ? yrs longer. right?
Other wise why go to a dr at all if your
done with life, which I'm not just there YET.
