Some medications can be very helpful, but they can also affect your body in ways that aren’t obvious right away. Blood monitoring is like a “check-up” for your body while you’re on these medicines. It helps doctors:
Make sure the medicine is working: Sometimes the dose might need adjusting to be effective.
Catch side effects early: Some medicines can affect your liver, kidneys, or blood counts, and problems might not show symptoms until they are serious.
Prevent dangerous levels: Certain medications can become too strong or too weak in your body, which can be harmful or make the medicine stop working.
In short, regular blood checks are like keeping an eye on your car’s dashboard—they alert your doctor to any warning signs before something serious happens. which is why, when we ask patients to comply by having blood tests, we are not doing this for the sake of it, there is a reason behind it and if patients are not complying with these requests, then we are unable to safely manage their health.
Both patients that were removed were given ample opportunities to have the blood tests done, but did not comply sadly and were therefore given 8 days notice to find another surgery.
