Thank you for your replies! Tsol, it's a primary care doc that I'm seeing now. I don't have a pdoc. I've been at my job a year and 6 months but they are still giving me the run around with insurance and say now I wont be offered it until March. Being a single mom with low income I don't have the money to pay for a pdoc or t. I'm hoping at my apointment Jan 25th that he will refer me to someone who I can afford. I had a seizure back in August and made the appointment with him in August and he wasn't able to fit me in until October (2 months later) and after the appointment in October the soonest he could get me in was January 25th. The clinic I go to has all retired doctors who volunteer one day a week. His days are Wednesdays. The rest of the doctors fill up just as fast as he does since they are free doctors and have the ability to get the patients free medication.

The fact that we have to pay such rediculous prices just to stay healthy and happy, something that we should be entitled to just from being alive, is nearly impossible to afford for many people. But that's another topic in it'self.

I found a t for only 40 an hour, but that's a lot more than I can afford. I may have to settle for seeing her once a month or something. Just wish she could give meds, guess I need a pdoc too but I really can't afford that too.

I will look into it though, I've spent so much time looking for a t not even thinking about finding a pdoc. Thanks for all the wonderful kind words from both of you. Today has been better than the last 2 days but far from over this anxiety thing... I wish it would go away...
