He does need a doctor and I agree some have never had the problems we have . My suggestion see if he will talk with friends who are happy with their and try one. I was on a rolller coaster for ayear and it is expensive. I had so many test wore a heart monitors 3 times 20 or 30 days at a time and the list goes on. Hang in there you will get the answer I did android was surprised what all they found. Do not be discouraged it will happen. I know you can make a few more test or doctors. If they do not tell u why u are seeing another Doc ask before you go. You have that right. Keep in touch.K8πŸ˜πŸ™

It seems to be a code among all medical providers to not question, reverse, challenge or contradict another's assessment, diagnosis or plan of care. Regarding second opinions. They are different from changing providers. From my experience, most Doctors won't offer more than an opinion until many years have passed probably due to liability issues?

Its always humorous when they are surprised by side effects happening with these drugs. I have had Drs act as if I'm crazy when I mention a bad side effect I'm having and its one thats listed as such, that ticks me off
I understand your wife lol my husband has had so many bad experiences with Drs he's now not been to one in over a year, he claims he's not going anymore unless he needs urgent care. I'm trying to talk him into getting into at least a new primary Dr, but so far no luck. I mean I get why because I'm reaching my limit, every time I go to a Dr they send me on down the line to another specialist it gets expensive and I haven't had any resolutions of health issues so seems pointless

10 mg., I wonder why insurance won't approve? I just got off the phone with a person with ties to the cardiologist office. Want blood work to perhaps see why I have complaints regarding the stated, printed, known side affects of the pills I'm on? They were going to switch one out to one I really had bad results from. I said NO! Told me it's up to me to DC the Xaralto, just let them know? My wife gets VERY, VERY ANGRY when I want off the meds. She says she won't visit me in the nursing home! That's one way to get a vacation I guess? 😎
