Although I get your point that we should always work with our physicians and/or pharmacists, we also have to challenge the status quo and be curious. My experience has been that most doctors and pharmacist typically push medications first instead of trying to find other ways to help with a condition or find the underlying reason for a condition. That's how the system works. One example: when my blood pressure meds lowered my potassium levels too much the pharmacist at my hospital tried to put me on an additional blood pressure medication and it took me lots of convincing to instead replace the one I was taking with a new one which kept both my potassium levels and my blood pressure at healthy levels.
