I have an ear infection. After chills and fever last night I went to the non-emergency clinic today. Listed EMSAM as a med I was on.
Dr. gave me a couple of Rx. Antibiotic and an expectorant containing DXM-a no-no with maoi's.
I didn't look closely till I got home and luckily checked it out before I took it.
Chances are I would probably be ok but it is containdicated. He either knew what EMSAM was or he didn't. If he knew what it was he wouldn't have prescribed this if he didn't know then he should have checked.
Just ticks me off! I have gotten so many sneers from Docs when I presume to know anything or ask to many question. Well, you bet! I am putting my life in your hands!
Always double check. Even a trustworthy doctor can make a mistake. This guy was in a hurry, didn't even look me in the eye.
How do you treat a patient without really looking at them?
I'm sure it will be a bad day for these Dr's when they kill someone. Ruin their whole day, I'll bet.
I'm goin to call them and let them know.
