I always figure I have to inform my doctor. He hasn't any time to keep up with anything outside the usual and he doesn't feel threatened if I do some research and come in and tell him how it is. There is so much available on the internet, now, there is no need for anyone with access to take any doctor's say-so without questions. A well-informed patient can protect themselves and educate the medical staff, too. Or, their ally can do it for them.

Bert, I am sorry to hear that happened to Lou when she was already so ill.
