@julia_doubleday Doctors are afraid of getting sued so they have to follow predetermined algorithms. They’re not trying to prevent you from getting better but if you were to have an adverse effect from a medication *you* chose, then saying “the patient thought it was ___” is not going to cut it.
Hi so !! Pre-eclampsia is literally life threatening !!! Like it’s not just “oh my blood pressure is high and my ankles are swollen” it’s like “can and will cause a stroke or multi-organ failure if untreated.” You guys know that, right? It’s important to me that you know that.
