[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 399852, member: 1514"] This doesnt sound good to me at all. Actually gives me flashbacks. I will never understand why doctors dont know what medications are used for. Duh. If they are confused, certainly they can call a pharmacist! This is actually why I ended up so blasted sick with 3 seizures when I had the meningitis. My boys took in all my medications I was taking at the time and the Doctors just basically ignored them and told them I must have had a bad reaction to the medications or overdosed on them by taking too many at one time so they were just going to put me in a room and see if I came around. That didnt sit well with Cory at all and he threw a major difficult child hissy fit and told them I never took too many medications, I knew exactly what and how to take them, I had been on them for years and this wasnt a reaction...I was sick and treat me NOW! Well, they finally did something when my temp went through the roof and I started seizing. After they forgot all about my medications and so they never gave me any of them at all even by IV, then I kept having seizures because I was on 4 medications that said to not stop them abruptly or they would cause seizures...well...do you think they ever even looked to see what I was on? Nope. They waited until I woke up and could actually speak to ask what about my medications! I had to literally tell them what I was on and then they finally gave me some of them back...slowly and not on anywhere near the right doses. They wouldnt even contact my doctors even though my family was begging them to do so. Idiots. It doesnt surprise me one bit that this rehab doesnt know its nose from page two. They probably just think...medications...all bad. No medications. In his case, he needs medications. They have to find a way to work around what he needs to take and what he cant take. No other way about that. [/QUOTE]
