I've Been Going To A New Rheumatologist Since I've Moved To PA. He Insisted I Have Blood Work And See Him Every 3 Months,
I've been feeling great, and he hasn't changed my medication from the last Doctor in NJ.
Is this normal? Every 3 months?
I would say that 6 months is the norm as long as you ate stable, but this doc insist on 3 months for all his patients
If you are on target he might be with the lab work. He just might be. I take methotrexate and Xeljanz so I see my doc every 6 months and labs every 6 months.
Thanks for the response, I was just wondering if this doctor was overdoing it. 😉
My rheum doc does the same thing. Feels like overkill to me. That said, he certainly is on top of things, and I don't worry that joint damage will be overlooked.
Should I look for someone new ?
