[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You do not need her permission. Your primary care doctor is not a god or your boss. I would disclose it because it is good for your doctor to have all of the info, but I would also switch docs if she gave me a hard time. [/quote]

But as a society, we choose drugs that have a professional gatekeeper for a reason.

And when I am not being treated as I deem to be correct, I go elsewhere. Last year, my child had pneumonia. Was given an antibiotic and it recovered almost immediately after taking it. Fever was gone in 36 hours. So obviously bacterial. I became sick right after. Was sick for 10 days. Finally saw my dr. Refused to give me an antibiotic. Stayed sick for 3 more days. Did an online thing for an antibiotic. Felt better within 24 hours. Doctors do not always get it right. [/quote]

So save money and treat yourself.

Good luck with that.

(You do understand your approach borders on RFK’s though. Experts be damned, this is what I think.)[/quote]

What do you mean? I had to spend extra money because the first doctor was a doofus. Luckily the second dr agreed quickly it was likely bacterial and gave me the antibiotic. And then I recovered very quickly. [/quote]
