I'm frustrated with my recent pdoc appointment because I wasn't able to get questions answered and a plan established. We got sidetracked. I really like her and we enjoy chatting about stuff. I went with a list and I had my med bottles set out in front of me so we could talk about what is going on but we only really got to it in the last 5 minutes.

I don't like being on Cymbalta and I don't think it helps much and I don't like the cost but she gave me some samples as it was about time to leave and we didn't address what else I could go on. No next appt. either. I mentioned Prozac and she liked that idea but I was too afraid to speak up and say, let's do it then. I think it scares me about forcing the issue because she gave me samples and the transition of changing also might be a nuisance. I'm not compliant if I don't like what I'm doing and I don't want to call her up and say I'm confused and what should I do. Ugh. Feels like a big mess to me.
We didn't address my giant all day long battle with anxiety either.
