It's okay. It's responsible to be with a doctor who listens to you. You're being compliant taking your pills so you deserve a chance. She is probably just jaded and opinionated. You told them the injections were too much and the side effects were too much, and they didn't listen. You just are stronger in spirit that you're not going to be like a sheep lead along. She can keep her opinions to herself....

All the time I call patients who don't want to come see us. Either they want to go somewhere else or not at all. I don't argue with them. It isn't my place. People have a right to choose their own care, even if I disagree with it.
