[Magdalen] Today, PCP appt.

[James Oppenheimer-Crawford]

Hmm. Maybe get a second opinion.  I was told similar by one physician
neurologist and then was starting with a new MD because my GP retired. We
discussed this and he said he had no problem with my continuing to take the
other medication. I don't take it very often, but when I do it's a
lifesaver. Glad I didn't just accept the first opinion without a quibble.
