i agree, i would go for a 2nd opinion too.
and also abilify is often prescribed along side of other meds..
and the fact the pdoc is weening you off, and only adding on me med at a time, is a good thinf, as it shows that the pdoc has experience-and that alone can be pretty hard to find.
however, a second opinion could help ease things a bit.
ive had a pnurse tell me that she wasnt going to follow the doctors orders because it was "pointless" and "dangerous" for her to give me an "upper and a downer" at the same time.. and yet, here i am 3 years later and taking them just as the pdoc ordered.. they dont always know as much as they believe that they do.
i was on mine because of a different reason than the commonly known reasons for the meds. seperately they lacked things, but taken together that lacking became nonexistant,
