Seven Months My PCP Prescribed Clopidogrel Tabs 75MG And Losartan

Seven months my PCP prescribed clopidogrel tabs 75MG and Losartan Potassium TAB 50MG. My fingernails started forming small V's on nail part which made me have to file them down. This has been continuous and now my nails are very, very short, some down to the quick. I am 73 yrs old and have always had very nice, well manicured nails and now I do not. I have spoken to my PCP several times asking if this could have anything to do with these 2 drugs and she says 'no'. I saw her again last week and when I showed her how bad they are now ad she suggested seeing a dermatologist. I saw one yesterday and she said I have no pitting, no vert. or horizontal ridges and she is stumpted. She says I should talk to my PCP again. I'm afraid of making her mad. What do you think
