I would encourage you to continue to work together with your doctor on decisions for medication treatments that is best for you. Building a trusting relationship with your doctor is important.

Take care!

You may need to see a pulmonary specialist! They will listen to your pros & cons of what worked versus what didn't work for you. Get a history of what your present doctor has given you, OR make a list of what this doctor gave you. Give the medicines that DID work and those that DID NOT work for you and then ask for a referral to a pulmonary doctor. They will not waste your time in getting you to feel better. Do this as quickly as possible so that YOU can feel better soon. Your present doctor is simply wasting your time and better health benefits.
