well you can talk to the dr and ask why she put that diagnosis on there and if she could remove it. i doubt that it will be taken off past documents but it wont be put on future documents. i have been falsely diagnosed severaly times by pdocs who have sat with me for 15 minutes because of my anxiety. it really upset me to have a diagnosis that was not me in my charts. i went over it with my t who saw me every week and he agreed that diagnosis was not accurate. while i met a few criteria it was necessary to meet five and the criteria i met was common to the diagnoses i did have. when i got with another pdoc i brought up to her when she was going over my dxs after seeing me a couple times and she agreed i did not fit and when she put in my dx into the system she did not list it. so from that day forward it was not something attached to me because future docs did not read that far back in my records. you really have to advocat for yourself when it comes to mental health.
