Me too!
Me too Glenn, but he's really conscientious about my meds and my condition. He's from Russia, practiced over there in rheumatology and then did 7 years training here in order to be a family practice physcian. He's quite an unarthodox physcian. Doesn't mind telling us he's gonna replace his clerk if she doesn't get his on line filing caught up. (great we said) It was our records we were looking for and couldn't find. Luckily we had another copy with us. Then he mentioned a professor of medicine he worked with who would only use one medication and he found out that's the one that one of the drug reps was paying him to use. He Said "lost my respect for that fellow right then" Then he said to us, "did you know this happens?"
Had to tell him that it wasn't news to us.
He has me do bloodwork every two weeks and at any sign of inflammation he'll raise the meds back up. I do think the time away from some of the meds is great tho. My husband often says "Would you like some lunch/breakfast/dinner with your pills?" Yick!!
