    I was prescribed a medication that has adverse side effects when taken with an existing medication I am already taking, this was not brought to my attention by my care provider but by the pharmacist when I went to pick up my new prescription. My provider also shows a lack of understanding of my needs, forgets to order labs, and doesnt show a great understanding of the area of care that I need. I have brought up needs that I feel should be addressed and symptom thats are presenting themselves and have been disregarded. I feel that my needs are not being met and my quality of life is suffering due to this.
