New medical practice

4 Replies

I have just joined a new medical practice and it is amazing.It is a single handed practice and the doc is a real sweetie. The practice nurse is highly trained in asthma treatment and is also a sweetie. My old practice wouldn't even agknowledge I had asthma and gave me the lowest dose clenil inhaler available 50 mcgs which did absolutely no good at all. When I was walking I had to stop every second step to get my breath back and the same half way up the stairs in the house not to mention the pain I went through in my legs due to lack of oxygen.

I saw my new doc today and he gave me a prescription for a 20mcg inhhaler. I'm very pleased I changed practices.
