I think you are doing the right thing in asking questions, although I am sorry that your doctor has not explained this to you. Here is ans article that will help you - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23360156/ The word doctor means teacher, and we are supposed to give our patients enough information to make an informed decision.
