    Season 2 Episode 6 Is your medication making you sick?

    Taking too much of a medication or taking a medication to counteract the side effects of another medication can make you feel worse than before you went to the doctor.    Being in the hospital is never fun.   When you understand a bit more about how to help the medical staff help you, you can end up with a hospital stay that is as good as it can be. In this episode we discuss both these topics and dig deeper into subjects we don't often talk about.
