> It seems to me that lots of people have questions in this forum that could have been best answered by their own doctors who wrote the prescription or made the diagnosis. Personally I often find myself left with a lot of unanswered questions about five minutes after my appointment with the doctor ended. It seems to me that we get short-changed by the medical profession.
I could not agree more, and I fired a total of SEVEN pdocs. I knew more than they did about my condition. I am currently seeing a pdoc who is a Psychopharmacologist (expert in the effect of drugs on the mind), and he's expensive but worth every penny. First pdoc I've ever seen who is open to nonconventional treatments and open to suggestions from the patient.
