I'm so glad you have found a pdoc you seem to like. He sounds like he puts the patient before the doctor which is good and rare. That he took the time to explain things IMO is great.

Don't get frustrated with the amount of time is could take before you feel "better".

Even after all the years of med, pdocs, treatments, hospital my husband doesn't understand. We've been to pdocs and therapy but well.....that's not important.

Keep posting.
