I AM NOT TO TAKE SULFER BASE MEDS---it's in my chart but he prescribed it,maybe MD youree is a angel of death for between him and the things he said to my husband on phone while i am in bed with 103 temp,not to be alarmed side effects will happen but he never said oh by the way your wife will be skinned alive,if only he would have just glaced at my chart he would have seen beware of this doctor, i have not seen a doctor since march 2012 and will die without seeing one for i am scared to death of doctors now,with all i went though no thanks for from sun up to sun down i was in servere pain-had to get pain pills to help with pain it numb it but it never stopped til skin started forming back,
