change in medication yet again frustrating
I am really uncomfortable since yesterday with my bladder so i called urology to see if the urodynamics testing was a possible next step however they are not sportive of it even though they gave me the information about it and I feel it would have been a better choice they are pushing a new medication on me so this is the route i will take seeing as it is the only one being offered. I just wish he would have just outright said I will not do uro dynamics until you try this medication rather than giving me something that I feel would be more beneficial and making me feel as though I am not able to make my own choices in medical care just frustrated and uncomfortable and waiting for a prior authorization for the med yes it is that new and the rule is Two other OAB over active bladder drugs must be tried well I have done this with ditropan and vesicare neither are effective.

Hey, sorry you are having problems. I hate it too when doctors don't listen to me like I have no involvement in my own care. It gets frustrating. Then, I seek a second opinion or at least look for another doctor. I hope the medication works for you since you have already tried those other two. You never know it just might. I don't have the same problems, but I do have digestive problems and have been prone to ulcers in the past. It took me several medications to get the right one to keep me comfortable.
ReplyDeleteHang in there. I am sure things will get better.
