Thanks Everybody!
We did it! Pocket riders sorry for the long day, and you can thank me now for giving you a break during the urine sample, I still haven't figured out how that is connected to my brain!
Anyway, here's how my 3 hours at the pdoc clinic went. First, a basic exam-bp, weight, etc. Then about 45 minutes of online testing. Then this PA comes in and goes over my entire medical, psych history. Next, another hour long online testing, and these were really hard-my IQ is probably listed at about 50 now! Then the urine sample and then an EKG. I have already been there over 2 hours, and still have not seen a dr. I guess she was in her throne room taking in all of the notes about me as they came in.
Finally, this female version of Doogie Howser comes in, and my thoughts are that there is no way this child has already made it through medical school, and then Doogie reprimanded me for my self-medication choices! I felt like I was being scolded by one of my students. Anyway, all of this, and all she did was add Abilify for now and back in two weeks. She also only gave me a prescription for enough Klonopin until my next appointment, like my family doctor. Okay, I know I can easily develop an addiction given my family history and occasional poor choices, but I have not yet experienced the appeal of this drug, it just softens my thoughts at night.
So, everyone, we will see if the depression starts to subside. Hopefully, at least the tears will stop.
Thanks!
