What has really pissed me off today is the total lack of care taken by our local (ex now) doctor/s. Wife has been crook for the past week with what we were told was a virus by a new doctor who didn't know my wife's medical history.
We found out ourselves that what she was actually experiencing we're withdrawal symptoms from medication she had been prescribed, for years, but now felt she no longer needed.
The effects of sudden withdrawal can be catastrophic, yet we were never advised that there were any dangers or procedures to follow when stopping the medication!
Called the new docs tonight, had a good chat that put my wife at ease, a little, and will be seeing them tomorrow to organize a proper regime to wean her off the medication.
