Dr. Acula, that is...
To sum up, we got J.J. off the medication we were concerned about. Dr. Acula was hesitant to make the change but I presented a well-researched argument and got him to change his mind. Which is fortunate, because I really didn't have time to get a second opinion (although I suppose Dr. Awesome Neurologist counts as the second opinion? Who knows). Anyway, this eliminates the need for J.J. to have blood tests twice a week as well, which definitely helps out our schedule.
Dr. Acula is encouraged by J.J.'s progress and doesn't need to see him back for three months. The only other real news to come out of the appointment is J.J.'s weight--he's down 74 lbs. When the cardiologist told J.J. he needed to lose at least 100 lbs., I didn't know he meant this month...
I'll update more tonight, but for now, I must get some work done!
