Loading ...I didnt tell most of the story yet,I went to Hospital shortly after Dr gave me atorvastatin with severe rapid fire hiccups that always ended with me gasping for breath with spasims closing my vocal cords making me make a strange sound as I gasped for breath.The Hospital did all sorts of tests xrays ,blood work ,cat scans,gave me perscriptions for amoxicillian to deal with sore throat contributing factors…Yet I never had fever…went home and tried all sort of home remedys ..one that helped was Manuka honey sipped with Green tea….,then drink ice cold water to stop the spasims ..they all worked for about an hour eash one of them…afeter1 week I decided I had to go back to hospital and did ..they did a second round of tests and prescribed Thorazine a pschiatric drug known to stop persistant hiccups…..They did give some relief
but are dangerous until I had enough of that crap and called the throat Specialist as described in an earlier post …He was told all this and suspected something more ..thankfully…….Dont stop pressing them until you get results from a DR that thinks about YOU and not his needs ….Some will keep you on drugs forever without finding root cause..Dont let that happen…Iv had three great Drs in my 80 years..but then Iv had TWO that were drug pushers ….My rule of thumb is Does he think about what brings him more money or does he put the Patient ahead of his own finances ….something to think about….
If I wasent on medicare with AARP plan F suppliment the bill would have been in tens of thousands….
