@johnwburns sounds like a good time to ask you doctor about PGx testing... Here's some information on it.

You may not metabolize the drug. Or at a very slow rate. This testing will tell you which drugs are best for you or which ones to avoid. It will also tell you the best dose to take.

Pretty awesome!!!

Very perceptive. I assume that I have issues with CYP2D6 after a recent go round with plaquenil and metoprolol. Unfortunately, I'm on medicare and there is no way they'll cover it, the swine.
