Suggest Treatment For Heart Attacks
I have had three heart attacks over the past two years. I have been referred to four doctors for my heart exams, lab work, etc. Each doctor recommends another medication for me. I am real uneasy about four doctors not knowing what the other has given me. I am taking 15 meds right now from four doctors. Is my concern warranted?

Hi, thank you for asking Healthcare Magic.
With this presentation, it possible for you to develop more complications as a result of these medications. You may be taking the same drugs or same classes of drugs but with different names. I would suggest you go to one doctor (preferably a cardiologist) with all the drugs or a list of the drugs you are taking for review of prescription.
I hope that helps
I wish you well
