If you think that the doctor isn't giving you the best care, look for a second opinion. I am not sure if my doctor that I was going to prior to getting the referral was the best for me. I might have been better going to transplant team sooner. My doctor was talking about possibly needing a transplant, having me go for some tests and then waiting until those tests were considered old and I almost had to start all over again. If a doctor doesn't want you to have a second opinion then run. A doctor should want the best for your health and not be so arrogant that they think they know more than anyone else, but research the doctors that you go to.
Bless your heart, you must get confused. Perhaps it’s because they are confused. Is your doctor a Pulmonologist? If not you might want to ask your doctors office for a referral to one.
Just a thought.
