I don't really know what to expect, just know it's supposed to take like an hour or so and she is supposed to figure out what's wrong and prescribe me something that will theoretically help and hopefully not make me worse. It's hard not to be cynical at this point, I've done everything T and primary doc have told me too and I just keep getting worse, I really do believe them now that something chemical is wrong.........
Your story sounds just like mine 2 weeks ago. I finally got in to see my new pdoc last monday, who I was really nervous about seeing. I turned out to really like him! Sure enough, I was diagnosed BP (in my case, NOS). I'm sure if you just give your pdoc all the information, he'll find the right diagnosis.

Wishing you the best, let me know how things go!
