My friend in Australia (I'm originally from South Africa. Been here 6 years) advised me that there is a medical reporting body that I can issue a complaint to. Don't have the energy to go down that route just yet. I've lost my job because of all of this going on for the last 4 months. Just couldn't function at all anymore. Luckily I got my union involved and get a nice little package to leave quietly out the back door. So I want to spend the next few months getting myself back on track. He's just a useless pdoc. Luckily the new one I've been referred to supports the use of lamatrogine - which stabilized my mood last year when my general practitioner put me on it in between transfers to new pdocs. Cos he's old school - as old as a fossil - he said he doesn't use these new exotic medications and whipped me off the saphris and lamatrogine and put me on the lithium. I never felt the same old me again. I feel as if a year of my life has been taken away from me. Onwards and upwards from here. A new start.
