Again... Totally from a parent perspective...16 sounds a bit you for making pharmocological decisons. Maybe this is true. Afterall, we now have JrHS giving kids Rx for birth control--I know a totally different issue there.

Maybe at 16 you have the right to have your medical information kept confidential and to choose what care you are willing to receive.But what I wonder is, can you legally consent to initiate care? IDK... Just seems like it you REALLY don't want your mother involved, then wait a month.

BTW, I totally get where you are coming from with wanting your privacy. In completing my paperwork with my GP, I don't even allow them to leave messages with my H regard dumb stuff like.. Cholesterol results. I'm not even sure if I listed an emergency contact. If something happens to me..i guess I'll be a ward of the state until I wake up and sy they can call someone. LOL
