Your wife and I would have a lot to talk about! I round with the PA’s and doctors. I have tried my best to educate them about the RI trial, but have been met with a lot of push back. Several of my doctors did not train in the US, and they are very suspicious of drug trials. They don’t believe the studies and say “you can’t believe the results bc they are all funded by drug companies who want to make money”. It’s very frustrating. Also, because I live in the south, we are light years behind the rest of the world.

Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about tenapanor.

A few of my doctors will prescribe valtessa, but most of the time the doctors just tell me to go over their diet with them and make sure they are not eating something they shouldn’t. Yeah right!

Also, our doctors are in and out of the clinic in about 5 minutes flat each week. That doesn’t give them much time to prescribe much of anything.

Many RD’s go on to become PA’s btw. We take a lot of similar classes in school. We have same years of education but 1/2 the pay. RD’s eventually get sick of the pay and go back 2 more years. When they finish, their pay almost doubles!
