Some thoughts - could have been the combo effect of WB and Lex causing your se's. "...a physician's experience to be valid..." - are you saying your Doc disbelieved you? And/or determined that, despite these se's, insisted you should continue with the combo, anyway? There are an array of ADs out there to try - no one should have to suffer intolerable se's. If one should have a major problem with any drug, especially if it's not listed as a potential se, then it should also be reported directly to the drug mfr. I have no idea if Docs do this, and I wouldn't give them the benefit of the doubt. Sometimes we have to be our own health advocates - I have found this to be true on countless occasions. Docs are not infallible - and sometimes we have to speak loudly enough to be heard.
