> at first she told me I needed my sypmtoms under control to be able to deal with the outcome. I accept that, it's just been that I don't feel she goes there as fully as I'd like and my frustration now lies in the fact that I've told her this more than once...and I feel my symptoms were under control enough to warrant that.

i guess that she doesn't see that your symptoms are under control enough yet. that is why she referred you on to p-doc and why she won't risk doing anything to have you dysregulate further.

it could be the case that she is misreading the intensity of your distress?

it would be worth talking to her about what it is that makes her think that your symptoms aren't under control.

hear what she has to say...

it might be that you can see the sense in it or it might not. would be nice to give her the chance to explain though.
