Take in your issues and questions on paper if you're likely to be nervous.

It's also helpful to him/her to have a synopsis of your medical history and milestones as no doubt they'll ask you and it gets uncomfortable if you're struggling to recal dates, events and previous medication.

Let us know how it goes.

Well i just got back from the new Pdoc. This is just likes to hand out meds. If i want any type of therapy then i need to see one of the other staff memebers. Anyhow he knows i suffer from OCD and Panic Attack Disorder but he cannot deceide if i am Bi-polar. He said with the increse im meds he is giving me that if i am Bi-polar then it will put me in a manic phase and then he will added Zyprexa nd Resperdol(sp?). He upped my Zoloft form 50mg a day to 100 with hopes to make it to 200. Plus he upped my Klonapin from 1 mg twice a day to 2mg twice a day. And gave my Ativan for immediate relief from panic attacks...

Hiya George

Is this the type of result you wanted from your pdoc?
Are you going to see one of his colleagues for any other type of therapy?

You are taking a lot of meds there - do you know which ones in particular are working or is it a combination of the 3.

Can you get any counselling atall?

Wow George!!!!!!!!

That is alot of medication.

Do you feel that it is helping at all?

Can you determine what is and what is not working?

I would think you are probably very overwhelmed with all of the meds you are taking daily. That in itself for me would be quite stressing and cause tons of anxiety.

How are you doing now?

I do hope you are well, and things are smoothing over for you.

Keep us posted as to how you are getting on with things.

I wish you luck. :)

Ok just saw him again and he uped my doses of Klonapin to 2mg 3x a day, Zoloft 200mg a day, a beta blocker, and he wants to add Wellbutrin to the mix, plus 2mg of Ativan

Wow George!!!!!,

That is quite a bit of meds to be taking at one time, but do you feel that they are helping you at all?

Do you like the PDOC?

Do you think this is the one for you?

I hope things are working out for you, and I hope that you are feeling better now.

Keep us posted to let us know how things are going okay?

Take care,
