(Sorry if this is in the wrong thread...not sure exactly where to put this).

So a while ago (months) I posted about how I went to the Gyno and he found some of my cuts. What he doesn't know is that was not nearly close to all the cuts I had, and theres a whole lot more where that came from. I digress... Anyways, he had to have a "talk" (where he pretty much bashed my T) and he put in a referral to a pDoc. I told him I didn't need the pDoc (which apparently I did a good job of convincing him because I never got a call) and asked him not to document it in my chart (which he hesitated on because he said he thought GP should know).

Today, I went to GP (nothing big). Everything was cool and normal. He dx'd me; wrote a cheap prescription - same old same old. At the end, when he was entering diagnosis, etc. I noticed he hovered over the computer a lot longer than normal. In fact - he's ALWAYS out of the room before I am but when I left he was still on the computer.

So, I look at the printout thats much bigger than normal (new system so it combines all doctors together in one chart) and under diagnosis list I find depression and self inflicted injury. I was shocked for a long time. I kept looking back at the chart like No. He. Did. NOT. I mean, I get why he put s.i.i. and I can't argue that because he saw the scars (and I do think he overreacted because I don't think he would have been any wiser if I had not told him I was the cause of them). But depression???

I definitely don't want either in my chart because I, working in the medical field, know the problems that can cause down the line. But what I want to know is - how can he put depression down? He's never evaluated me for it. He's never prescribed meds for it. Hell - he never told me I was depressed. (Being real, I already know I have depression...and more - but he doesn't know that.) What did he just eyeball me and say "Yup! She's got her hair in a ponytail - she's depressed." Did he just assume that self harm equals depression? It could, but maybe i'm just kinky like that. He doesn't have any basis for that diagnosis to be in my chart except for the self harm scars and to me - thats not really enough.

Maybe i'm not even mad about that. I just feel like me and GP have a good thing and I don't want gyno to ruin it. Stick to the lady parts gyno! And leave the non female diagnosing to the GP.
