Is there any way to provide self treatment not full recovery treatment? can you die from it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes & maybe: Any time patients don't take medications as directed, they shouldn't expect full recovery. Depending upon what needs to be treated, there may be dire consequences. Unfortunately, i couldn't divine any more detail from your question to answer more specific to your situation. Go ask your family physician about your concerns.
