Do You Question Yourself Asking Your Doc Or The Medical Field Etc A ? And Ask If Or Hold Back From Doing It?

I'm usually open when this comes up to me and like the last appointment I had with the new replacement doc I brought up my slight concernment of my divaprolex and levetiracetam and the amnesia I was getting once in a while, but didn't comment on it, it must have not been an issue otherwise she would have addressed the issue I brought up, my opinion here what are your thoughts and has something like this happened to you?

I always question the doctor until I understand what is going on. Even if he has to use small words and short sentences.

I had a neurologist who thought had cerebral palsy. This old news to some. He was worried that my brain was getting damaged by the medication. So I agreed to halfway measure of how to take my meds. and check my levels in 6 months. I sent him a message to the VIA Kiaser portal about how far off base he was.. I got a nice note of apology. Since then, I have gotten a new neurologist. I see her in November. ericthom3

I 🤷‍♀️ truly myself ask my Doctor 👨‍⚕️everything that's on my mind without a doubt, so that I can be sure about whatever it is that is going on within my life issues is completely resolved and right for me 🤷‍♀️ because it's important to know about myself and body 💯 percent wholeheartedly ♥ for all reasons 🤔 so questions asked is important 🤷

I never hesitate to ask my Dr. anything I feel that's necessary. It's nice having one that's willing to answer also. I've had some who didn't work with me in that way, that's why I changed when needed.
