Not sure about two years wasted...meaning wrong diagnosis? Welcome to PC where you will rarely feel alone.
after 2 1/2 years with a pdoc I switch in April and got correct diagnosis...
The up and down of BP is an odd one...I too feel lost at times...my compass just doesn't seem to work...
If you just found out...the mood stabilizers used for BP of course take awhile to have any affect...in my case the titration periord can be up to two months...GRRR!
Again welcome...see you around...
