I live in a rural area and he did come 30 miles to a medical office. I was assigned nurse practitioners who continued the same practice of not discussing anything except blood tests and listening to my comments? It is interesting that I was given medication when requested. The medical group did request a money grant to pay 100% co-pay $3400. I do share what I have learned and I do promote this medical group sharing information to inform people who they can improve their general health. I have another appointment in March and I have a feeling it will be another 5 minute visit with me doing 90% of the talking to discuss my health And my activities to promote my health.

I had to learn from different groups I joined to find my "answers?" When I had visited my doctor he could provide answers to 60% of my questions and I had known 100% of the answers. Currently because there is no more fear of the unknown I am very happy. I hope you get all your answers so that you can be as relaxed as I am knowing I have a good future.

Nope, Nope, Nope. If you are asking a doctor to help treat you. The least you can do is follow their recommendations. If you don't agree, discuss it with them--and seek another doc if you can't comply. How the heck is a doc supposed to help you if you go your merry way and do what ever you want--including going against his treatment plan and then get the results you deserve? Folks, you must agree to what they propose and do it the way they set it up. Absolutely advocate for yourself, but don't blame the doc if you don't follow the plan they proposed and you agreed to. My two cents.--jmb

Yes, they were afraid it would interfere with the meds I take.

Tea is good for the body & soul. This is something we should all do and know it benefits our mental and physical health.
