Lindsey, thanks for being so concerned. Yes, another doctor could admit him, but I think it will be OK to wait. If he gets bad again, we will definitely go with another doctor. Gary is a very difficult patient because he has so many complicating illness. Heart failure medications aggravate kidney failure and asthma. And asthma meds aggravate heart failure. It's really hard to balance everything. His doctor knows what she can do and what she can't, so I'm more comfortable with her, but we will definitely go with another doctor if we need to.
