She’s a keeper. Congrats to her and to you.

Sometimes medical care goes too far, makes the wrong decision, prescribes too many or wrong medications, etc.

I’ve known more than one person over the years who has begun feeling better when they started ignoring doctor’s orders or cut back the ten prescribed meds they were taking to the one or two they could tell were helping.

Doctors are like auto mechanics or the guy who fixes your refrigerator. They’re repairing a machine (in their case, the human body) and trying to determine, often through the process of elimination, what the problem is. Sometimes it’s easy, sometimes it’s not.

There are (unfortunately) too many patients who feel that they got less than their co-pay’s worth if they do not leave their Doctor’s office without a new prescription.\

That is part of America’s REAL drug problem.
