My P-doc has always explained every single medication that is an option and told me the side effects and asked me my thoughts before deciding things. He decides the dosage on my own, but lets me make the final call and explains to me where we are going if that doesn't work. Increasing dose to what, what other med we will try, and so on.

He even tells me about the cost of the medication and how to get a cheeper by ordering it a slightly different way XD
