Your doc's answer with regard to Stiolto is exactly right. Stiolto is a maintenance medication and you won't notice anything every day when you take it. If you truly believe that it is doing nothing, try this: don't take it for two weeks. That's about how long it will take to get it all out of your system. If you don't notice any difference, then you may be right; it's doing nothing. My guess is that you'll notice a difference within a week As for the CT scan, what you're experiencing isn't unusual, but I would prefer to have the results from the doc, especially if they're not positive. I would wait and see on that. The nebulizer is a different issue. Where did you get it? Most people get them from their DME as part of Part B, and you can turn it back in to them and ask for a new one. If you bought the old one, you can go buy another one; you don't need a prescription. You doc should have told you all this; the fact that he didn't probably means he doesn't know much about equipment and how you get it.

Nice doctor.

I would be calling my insurance company and finding another doctor and
Putting a complaint so no one else can be hurt

@A MyCOPDTeam Member If it were me, I would be looking for a different Dr. A Dr who will take time with you and explain things.
Take care.
