The courage for some joining this feed should be commended for sharing their story as they are scared, distraught, and just trying to absorb how much their life has just changed. Sorry to hear about your comment about drs and pharmacists as this has thankfully not been my experience. Also, reading up on medications can be frightening on own, less frightening when first discussed with dr why would need this drug, the benefits of taking this drug, what to expect from this drug, over the possible side effects. Please do not be afraid to ask questions when at dr and make a list of questions at home once you have absorbed all discussed at consult, then call for a Telehealth appointment for additional questions, or better yet, if you can sign up for “my chart” (on phone or laptop) with drs office where you can message the dr directly any questions who respond quicker than waiting for next appointment.
