(as a relative),

My experience is one of constant anxiety as it relates to the care my husband has received in the last year. 

His rheumatoid arthritis medication was changed because he developed PBC which threatened his liver. 

While he understood the need for the change, and was helped through the process, he has been left for the last six months in constant pain, flare ups and sometimes has barely been able to move.
