You just hit a nerve i guess. I know Phillipa well and want what is best for her. My opinion is people who tell her not to listen to her Doc are saying they know better than her Doc. Only he really knows ( at least this is my hope) what meds may help her particular illness. We at PB cannot properly evaluate and diagnose someone simply by what we are told via internet communication...there may be a lot more going on than we are aware of, which is exactly why i suggested that she should comply with her pdocs instructions. Saying to stop taking the meds if she has a bad reaction may not of been the right thing to tell her, really what i was trying to point out was if it doesn't help or makes things worse, simply quit taking the meds...and you are right, call the Doc first. Some people are very vulnerable and impressionable to the point where the wrong advice to ignore there docs orders could be the difference from staying very ill or perhaps making a full or partial recovery.
