Trials With Asthma

As Told By: Anonymous

My wife has diabetes and also asthma.

Of recent, my wife's doctor has developed symptoms that have put him on sick leave for quite some time. Another doctor in the same branch has taken his place. He turned around and reduced my wife’s medications that were prescribed by her regular doctor.

My wife was fine all this time dealing with her asthma. She no longer gets a full month's supply of the medications that are needed to help her. To me, this doctor doesn't realize that he is now creating more of a problem than what already exists for my wife.

They tell my wife at the pharmacy that they pulled the Ibuterol off the market because it is messing up the ozone layer. This helped my wife to open her lungs to breathe. If anything messed up the ozone layer, it’s those idiots shooting rockets into outer space since the 1960's, and to this day they haven’t accomplished a dang thing from it.

What is now prescribed for her to take doesn't work. My wife is having trouble breathing, or maybe I should say she is suffocating, trying to get air to her lungs. I told my wife to look for another doctor instead of dealing with this wanna-be. This man is not there to help her. We have already tried to talk to him; he has his mind already made up. I thought doctors were there to help people with symptoms, but I'm having second thoughts about that.
