I agree that an individual's dr must be consulted for final treatment decisions. If a dr is knowledgeable, he would know which drugs his patient can and can't take. I see no harm in the patient suggesting a drug that worked for someone else. Personally speaking, even if I went to my dr and insisted on him prescribing me a certain drug, my dr wouldn't do so if he knew it wouldn't work for me. Doesn't this make sense?
What I particularly took issue with was your language that people on this site who are trying to be helpful should be beaten. And I'm surprised that Dr. Bob hasn't given you a PBC.
