Time to find new doctors.

You can always ask the pharmacist about drug interactions too. I would find a good Dr. that listens to you and addresses your concerns. Or switch to another Dr. in the practice. They shouldn't be taking it lightly and ignoring your side effects. Did you stop taking the new med.?
