I have asked this in on area and now going to ask in a different area to hopefully get some different answers.
I am in Medical Anthropology. And doing a project on Medical Compliance. as in Complying with doctors orders. I have a few questions I would love if I could get some health workers to answer for me. any help would be great. 1.) What is your career title (CNA, MD, LPN, etc.)? 2.)What was the reason for your last visit to a doctor (illness or injury.)? 3.) What did the doctor tell you to do or what was the prescribed treatment? 4.)What did you do ( did you follow the doctors orders or did you do something else)? and lastly 5.) Why did you choose to do what you did? PLEASE BE HONEST WITH YOUR ANSWERS. This is for a class project on research on the gap between awarness and behavior. Thank you for your help?

1. Pharmacy Technician
2. Kidney Stone
3. Narcotic pain meds and plenty of fluids
4. Took the meds as I needed, and tried to drink as much as I could.
5. I drank fluids to eliminate the stone, and I took the meds as I needed (not consistantly) so I could at least cope.
