My Current Numerous Worries

So how did the review with your doctor go on the 16th? Did it happen or has it been postponed.....?

Have you?

I think it was with her Dr she had the CBD discussion and something about chasing CBT ? Or have I got the wrong end of it ?

Hi, so I didn't take the meds and sought alternative route of CBD capsules as I was terrified of the side effects of Flux. I had discussion with GP about cbd and he was arsey and rude about it. I even asked if we could consider alternate meds. Since then CBD hasn't worked much but have only been on lowest dose, waiting on my CBT too for over a month so going to chase Tues.

So if I understand you correctly, you decided not to follow your doctor's advice concerning meds and discussed using CBD which your doctor blew off, and then discussed the use of other prescription meds which you blew off, so you say you'll follow up on CBT next week?

Doc prescribed flux.
ALOT of you in here, even Nic said Flux wasn't right/takes months to work, read horrid side effects and been told horrid side effects. All well and good but as a single parent I didn't want to risk temper or hallucinations or suicidal thoughts.

I've researched CBD for months, joined support groups and instead tried this supplement on low dose, currently got higher dose ordered.

Spoke with doc on 16th, he wasn't open minded about CBD at all despite me saying I was open to alternatives he brushed me off almost like a 'you've made your bed' attitude because I chose cbd over flux. I was open to an alternative med, he brushed me off.

What alternative med were you open to? Why should your GP believe that you would be open to taking a different med?

But this is why we try not to give medical advice, because we don’t actually know you and your GP does.

My GP doesn't know me though since I've been at this doctors I've had different person each time. Turns out he was a clinical nurse practitioner (i say gp I posts as that was what he was refered to).
