(((Sidestepper))) Sorry you've been having such a tough time. I'm glad you are doing better in the depression dept. though.
Doctors trying to force their brand of treatment on us, especially when we've been down that road and know it doesn't work for us -- Ugh! That has happened to me too. We are the ones living in our bodies, and yes, authoritarian-type doctors, sometimes we really do know better what is not good for us than you (if some really listen even). I too wonder if I'd be here if I'd given into the hammering insistence of one doc.
Hope your sinus infection

heals up soon.
