Sometimes I hear what you are saying. I understand exactly what your point of view is and was. I totally get it. But how can you tell Newtus that she needs to fight the battle differently (write letters, lobby against the system, etc) if she can't even function enough to get out of bed? If they keep her over medicated by her injections how the heck is she suppose to change the "quality of her life"? She can't. She has explained in detail exactly what the injection does for her. So knowing this information why should she have to put up with it for "years" until they decide to listen to her and bring the medication down? I know docs and nurses have rules to follow. I fully understand that. I know they have a job to do. Granted. I promote recovery also. I believe a person has to do everything they can to work on their personal recovery. My point is this... from everything I have read from Newtus about this injection situation....I don't believe she is purposely trying to be non complaint. I think she is forced to become non complaint because they continue to force an over the top amount of an injectable medication into her body and it is ruining her "quality of life". I think if they had Newtus on a medication that was actually helping her, that she would take it willingly! Obviously she desires to be well and have a productive life. That doctor has rules to follow yes but he is the one that decides what medication to give. If a patient is saying this isn't working then just maybe they should listen. Don't you think?
